Courtney's 10!!!

Courtney turned 10 today! She wanted a Safari Sleepover for her party. Pete made a "What am I" animal scavenger hunt for the girls to find through the "safari" trip to the zoo. These girls were quick to get the answers!
They tried out the elephant tricycle. I don't think that all of them together came close to the weight of even a baby elephant.
Back at the house Court opened her presents. Her friends know her really well. She got such fun gifts! Pete and I got her roller blades. We'll see how that goes.
After kabobs for dinner, they had cake and ice cream.
And after Dance Dance Revolution they had a dance party.
And sing along.
Courtney had a good birthday and I think her friends had fun too. I can't believe she's already ten! They really do grow up fast. School starts in a week and I have a 7th, 5th, and 3rd grader this year. I remember when they were so little! Happy Birthday Courtney. I hope you have a wonderful year!!
