Sydney's birthday weekend FUN

 This darling girl turned 9 at the end of January.  This is her Taylor Swift guitar cake.  I was pretty amazed with myself!

 We celebrated at my mom's house with the cousins.  I love these 4 best friends.

 Then it was off to Grandma Gay's for more cousin love.  Syd is so lucky to have such fun cousins to spend time with.  I have so many awesome memories with my crazy cousins.

 We spent the night at Grand Targhee and skied for 2 days.  We had so much fun.  The weather was perfect and sunny and the hill was fabulous.

 Syd found a bear on the trail....

and Sam ran into a mouse house...

 Cool ice sculptures in Driggs.

 I love how these 2 are such great friends.  Their funny conversations remind me of me and my brother, Mark.

 On top of the world!

 

 On Monday evening, we met the Lewis Fam at I Jump.  It was tons of fun.  Netti and kids and Gayleen and Shelby came too.

 Jane didn't ever stop

Ethan and Ella

 Jake came out of the pit and scared Sam

 Netti was 9 again

 Yes, Sydney is wearing a name tag that says "Its my birthday".  We made it at breakfast, and she wore it all day Monday.

 Josh is always 9....

Happy birthday to the most amazing 9 year old ever.  Sydney is such a help to me.  I can not put into words how much support, love, and friendship I get from this girl.  She is good at everything she does, and she does everything well.  She is beautiful, kind, smart, and motherly.  I couldn't live without her.  I love you sissa.
