Well - somehow we've arrived at our sweet girl's 9th birthday! (It hardly seems real!)
While Braelynn's birthDAY was on Thursday - we gathered everyone (well, as many as we could!) together on Friday for a DONUT themed birthday party! Even though we were missing about half of our normal party "attendees" - somehow Braelynn still received a mountain of gifts and everyone made her feel so loved and so special. (Uncle Steve was out of town, Aunt Emma is still recovering from her crazy bout with illness that she's been fighting since Christmas, and Aunt Ellen was in the hospital - Braelynn's brand new cousin was born ON Braelynn's birthday - talk about an awesome birthday gift!!)
As usual, Aunt Ruby came over and helped decorate plus make Braelynn's donut cake extra special. (I just made a regular cake in a bunt pan - and then we made a "drip" icing for the top!) I also made "healthy" donuts to have as well (they were gluten/dairy/sugar free) - let me know if you what the recipe, they were really good!
Braelynn decided that she wanted to flip the script on the party and open her gifts first. I must admit, it felt REALLY strange doing the party that way, but it was fun to change things up and do something different!
