This past weekend was the official kick off of birthday month at our house. Our daughter had her 13th birthday party sleepover, we had a party for my father in law who turned 92, and we had a special tea party for our daughter with older women passing along words of wisdom to her. Today is her actual birthday and she is getting her ears pierced! Next week is son G's 11th birthday and two weeks after that is son L's 10th birthday. Whew! Busy times, but so, so special.
This was daughter G's year for a "friend" party, and she chose to go bowling and have a sleepover. It was the first time our boys had been bowling and was very, very fun!
These girls are all from our daughter's small group Bible Study and are very sweet girls.
Looking cool at the bowling alley!
We came home and had cake and ice cream.
I gave the girls a 1:00 A.M. curfew, but they stayed up talking in the dark after that. This is what I found at 9:15 the next morning.
We had pancakes with different toppings for breakfast. Here is Little Man with all 3 toppings!
It was so fun, and it made us happy to see our daughter, her friends, and our boys all having a good time. Happy Birthday G!
Happy Birthday G! 13 - wow how time flies. Looks like you had a very fun and blessed birthday party. We pray that today would bring you a renewed sense of purpose and a vision of the woman God is chiseling you to be. Blessings.
