Friends!

Today was SB's birthday celebration with her friends. She choose just to have her two best friends this year as we had 15 girls last year. None of us was up for that again!
I picked the girls up from school, took them to get their pictures taken together, dinner at The Cheesecake Factory, shopping at Target, where they all bought matching shirts, ice skating at Polar Ice, where their school was having a skate night, and now home to watch a movie and do manicures.

SB's friend who is a boy, who happens to have adored her since 2nd grade, and she him, gave her a gorgeous necklace for her birthday tonight at skate night and many of her girl friends were there and brought presents as well. So she had a lot of fun and felt much loved, as always! Tomorrow is the family party which she shares with her cousins who have birthdays coming up soon. The party just happens to fall on SB's actual birthday this year. Lots of celebrating this very special girl going on around here!
