~ My Birthday ~

As I said yesterday, Saturday was my birthday...

And I turned 13!

First, I wanted to go shopping with my birthday money--and since Kohls is my favorite store, I went there. I especially like looking at the clearance racks and I found a lot of

great stuff!

Then we went out to eat at Checkers. That is a hamburger place for those of you who might not know. I LOVE their

seasoned fries! :)

This year my theme was "High School Musical" and I had plates and napkins to go along with it. My mom and my brother had decorated the diningroom with streamers and balloons for me the day before. It looked really pretty!

So...later in the evening, I blew out my birthday candles and

made a wish! (Sorry--I can't tell you what it was! ;)

Then we ate cake and ice cream and watched the first "High School Musical" movie. It's one of my favorite movies....but, actually I like all three!

I had a really great day and it was fun turning 13!

Until later.....

This Past Weekend...and School is Almost OVER!

This past weekend we had a cook out in our backyard. We had hotdogs, pasta salad, cheese and crackers, and later that evening we had sliced cantaloupe. YUM!

Then sometime after we got done eating we played UNO until it started to rain. I love playing that game!

Hey look! I can see my daddy's cards!

AND

I am so excited!!!!

Tomorrow will be the last day of school for this year!!!

YAY!

*~ My Trip to Memaws *~

Saturday we went to my memaw's house and these are some pictures we took.

This is Memaw's cat. He is really sweet, cute, and loving. He really likes people, but doesn't like other animals. He wants all the attention for himself!

Look at those pretty green eyes and long whiskers! Y



Doesn't he look like a good mouser? Y
This is a squirrel that kept coming up to Memaw's patio door and looking in. He wanted some peanuts to eat.


She has about seven squirrels that come to visit her everyday. I love watching them out the door.

Memaw gave me some peanuts to give them...but this one was a little shy.

I had a really good time at Memaw's house!

My Brother's Card

I gave this card to my brother when it was his birthday...

Aren't I a NICE SISTER??!

lol! :o)

My Brother's Birthday!

Yesterday was my brother's birthday. We went out to eat at a Chinese restaurant. He was feeling brave and tried some sushi. When he put it in his mouth a funny look came on his face. I could tell by his expression it wasn't good. I don't think he'll be eating that anymore!

My favorite thing there is the Honey Chicken. I think it's really good!

When we were finished eating, the waitress gave us some fortune cookies. This was in mine:

Later in the evening we had cake and ice cream. It was a big three layer Italian Creme Cake!

My birthday isn't for several more months, but I'm already making plans for it!
