Happy Birthday Maren

Happy 6th birthday Maren! We are so happy to have you in our family. But how did 6 years go by so fast? It seems like we just brought you home from the hospital during a snowstorm with your crazy black hair and tendency to nap the day away.
Now you are a beautiful 6 year old girl, going to kindergarten, skiing black diamond runs and playing jokes on your sisters. You are imaginative and enthusiastic. You are spunky and anxious to be doing something. You love projects and outings. You hate chores and keeping clean. You have the most expressionistic face. We love you and hope this next year is even better than the last.
Birthday cake request... Chocolate cake with green vines, blue and purple flowers, and white writing - OR - a gingerbread house. I opted for the chocolate cake. It just isn't gingerbread season anymore.
Birthday breakfast request... Crepes with fruit and whipped cream. For dinner... Sukiyaki - a family favorite (recipe to follow).
