Happy 9th Birthday Sis!

Abi's birthday was a little different this year. She had Girl Scout Camp on her birthday so we didn't see much of her, which was strange for me. I guess it's a feeling I should get used to with her getting older. She came home with a smile on her face and reported having an awesome birthday and a great time with her friends.

As soon as she arrived, all the girls sang Happy Birthday to her.

Since her birthday was on a Saturday this year, we celebrated on Sunday. 
Birthday Cupcakes!


One of Abi's presents was a ticket to Kurios by Cirque du Soleil.  
It was a great show and we all really enjoyed it!


Before the show, Josh and I took Abi out for some of her favorites - 
Sushi for lunch and of course, a huge chocolatey dessert!




In lieu of a big birthday party with friends, she decided to go to Family Fun Center with her best friend, Sydney. The highlight of the day was this ride. Although she liked it, she was absolutely terrified.  She would scream at top of her lungs as it went up and as it came closer to the ground, her eyes would get huge and her facial expressions were beyond funny. She had most of the people waiting in line cracking up. 
 

Abi, you are growing up so quickly and I am proud of the person you are becoming.  You are motherly, artistic, spontaneous, friendly, smart and always up for an adventure. You have a love for music and enjoy doing art and spending time with your friends. I know I can always count on you to look out for your brother and sister and for that I am grateful. Happy Birthday Sis!
