Birthday DESERT ~ Sadie Style

We had planned to take Sadie, her bestie and the rest of the Growing Garcia's out for ice cream BUT Sadie had a better idea.

She and Lola and their chauffeur (her daddy) headed of to publix where they bought all the fixin's (nuts, caramel, butterscotch, hot fudge, cherries, whipped cream, bananas, magic shell oh and I almost forgot 2 gallons of ice cream) and we made mile high sundae's for the birthday girl and all to enjoy.

Check it out...

Yep we totally put a candle

on her ice cream sundae

Lola

and Madison and their crazy concoctions

My wild and happy

Birthday Dinner

For her special Birthday dinner she requested:

Mom's Mac & Cheese

Corn on the cobb

Salad

Strawberries and blueberries

and her BEST friend Lola

this girl is SOOOOOO easy to please!

Birthday Continued~~Movie and Lunch

After "their" moment the girls ~Lola and Sadie~ meet up with about 20 more besties for the summer movie Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs where they laughed so hard the cried.

Once the movie ended the girls snuck out and shared a girlie lunch at Stevie B's where they chowed down on pizza like grown men and cleaned house in the game room like professional carnies :)

and Sadie's 8th Birthday continues....

Sadie's Birthday was indeed off to a FABULOUS start

Happy 7th Birthday Sadie (once more)

One thing about us Garcia's...we sure know how make a birthday LAST!!!

Tonight after gymnastics we had yet another cake and a few more presents for our aging beauty.

This cake was picked out by Sadie herself. :)

Daddy used sparkler style candles

Then we serenaded her

and she made her final birthday wish.

************

Dearest Sadie,

It is our prayer that all of your wishes and dreams come true. You are a treasure!!! You are kind, tender hearted, forgiving and you have an ability to do something I have never seen another human being do - love with an agape love. You are an amazing child of God. May you continue to grow into the person He has created you to be.

Our love always,

Your very proud and happy parents

Happy Birthday Sadie (and again)

This afternoon we all (Me, Sadie, Ethan, Madison, Aunt Stephanie, Coral, Canyon and Chason) journeyed to Nana & Pepe's for another birthday celebration.

Nana surprised Sadie with a few special gifts and this VERY cute and VERY YTUMMY m&m ice cream cake which had a ton of mini m&m's throughout. Oh it was SO SO good!!!

Happy Birthday Sadie (again)

Tonight (after all of the Father's Day festivities) we celebrated Sadie's birthday (again). This time with a tea party compliments of Aunt T. and Uncle Dave who blessed Sadie with a beautiful porcelain tea set....

Sadie set the table and Daddy served the freshly brewed tea.

Of course, Princess Madison was thrilled to partake

Even the boys enjoyed themselves

We were fresh out of "crumpets" so we settled for chocolate covered strawberries. Mmmmmm Mmmmm. :)
