Presents, Pizza & a Pinata

 Right when we got home from her party, Madi wanted to open her gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Heider.
 They gave her beautiful earrings and a necklace with her birthstone opal.
 Glowsticks, a NM license plate with her name on it for her bike, and a horn!
 Plus Grandma Heider made her an adorable skirt with a cute pink sweater.  Perfect for fall!
 Plus this awesome hat!
 I was lucky enough to take a real quick picture of all the cousins right before her party.
And it turned out so cute!
 After eating pizza, we all headed out back for PUMPKIN PINATA time!
 We started with the birthday girl then went from youngest to oldest.
 Everyone took two swings.
 Surprisingly, everyone made contact with the pinata.
 They were all so excited!
 Then on Owen's second swing . . .
 This happened!
And everyone rushed to get some candy!
We were disappointed that Ethan and Tripp didn't get a turn.  But lesson learned:  use a lighter weight bat and only one swing per person!  :)
 Here's a "BEFORE" picture of the pinata.  We sent it to all the cousins before her party to let them know how excited we were for them to get here!
