Our little girl turned eight this year. At eight, Layla is sweet, spunky, thoughtful, insightful, inquisitive and oh-so energetic! She’s a girly-girl, but a little bit of a Tom-boy at the same time (how could she not be with three older brothers she looks up to). She loves her family, adores her pets and cherishes her friendships. She’s always making plans with friends! Her favorite hobbies include boating, swimming, skiing, dancing, cheer, playing piano and loving on our pets. Happy birthday, Layla Blythe! We love you!
Funny story – year she originally wanted a paintball party after she had so much fun at Kieron’s. I told her I thought that was a fun idea, but didn’t think many of her friends would like it. Her second choice was having the Reptile Man come to the house. Again, I agreed it would be fun, but told her I wasn’t sure many of her friends would like it. Fortunately, a Taylor Swift themed party with slime was next on her list, and her friends could definitely get on board with that!

It’s great to be eight!
For her birthday, Layla requested sushi for dinner. We were happy to oblige!
Funfetti cake!

Guests were immediately directed to the bathroom to apply Taylor red lipstick
