Gwyneth is going through a major Cars phase. She loves the 1st movie and loves all things Cars related. She especially likes Lightning McQueen. Imagine her delight when Gus and Missi showed up with her birthday gift and it was a....wait for it.........Lightning McQueen suitcase! The girl was in heaven. She opened it up, her face lit up and then she was outta there. She ran around the house dragging her new suitcase behind her. 

Now, what on earth could be better than a Lighting McQueen suitcase? Ahhhh, yes - a Lightning McQueen suitcase filled with candy. Best birthday ever for Miss G? I do believe so! 

A quick thank you and then she she's off....

Now, this is a funny one. After one of our parties I told Missi in passing "if you want to make GG happy, just get her a package of plates for her birthday". So what do you know? She did! And of course, they were a hit. Gwyneth quickly opened her plates and handed them out to all of us while playing restaurant. Practical, but rather beloved gift. 

My attempt to get a picture of Gus, Missi, and Gwyneth. She is a bit distracted with Pop Rocks!

Lots of lovin' for Miss Gwyneth.

Gwyneth rocked the Cars dress I made for her. It's rather difficult to find Cars clothes for girls, but luckily I made one of my dress patterns work for her. She sat by my sewing machine and waited ever so patiently for her dress to be finished. Makes my heart happy.

Not to be outdone, even Gus and Missi's card put our's to shame. It was as big as her head....well, bigger really!
