It was a low-key birthday this year. We had the usual morning festivities:
After a slightly rushed traditional family +1 dinner at Red Robin, she had her senior portrait appointment at school (appointment times are assigned, not chosen). I know some parents go to watch, etc., but I wanted to be surprised when we got the the proofs, so I didn't.
The next day was an early-release day from school, so the plan was for Thing One's squad to come over, eat pizza, and watch a movie. Unfortunately, between work schedule conflicts and illnesses, only one person ended up being able to come over. I really liked this kid...until she said that "The Princess Bride" was only OK.
Saturday, we had family (with a few notable absences) over for home-cured ham, ice cream cake, and general celebrating. I was so busy playing hostess that I didn't take a single picture while folks were here.
She's not a little kid any more.... |
