  • She plays the violin and the piano.
  • She is a tremendous soccer player and just made the Northern Elite Travel soccer team.
  • She loves to draw and paint and has made the walls of her bedroom into her own personal gallery.
  • She is a loyal friend.
  • She loves animals and wants to be a zoologist when she grows up.
  • Savannah is extremely creative, always leading her brothers and the neighborhood kids in some game or adventure that she has come up with.
  • She has a very obedient spirit and strives to be the best person she can be.
  • She looks for ways to be kind to others and include those who might be left out.

The traditional birthday morning balloons...
and present!  Savannah just loves Tinkerbell!
The past few years Savannah has been lucky enough to have grandparents and cousins visit on her birthday and this year was no exception. Grandma and Grandpa Schaeffer as well as Aunt Heidi, Uncle Ryan, and McKenna, Ashlyn, and Kellan arrived right on her special day, just in time for dinner, dessert, and presents.
What would a birthday be without a new Monster High doll?
This year I talked Savannah into having Strawberry Pie for dessert and boy, was it yummy!
