Mary turned 11 today! We are so grateful to have her in our family, and we are also so grateful that she enjoyed her day so much. She deserves it!
The day started with gifts and breakfast in bed.
Then Mary got to skip school and go on a mommy-daughter date with Lily and go shopping at the City-Creek mall.
Mary and Lily had an amazing time together. Then I picked up Georgia and we met Lily and the gang at the Orem Farmer’s Market. Georgia was feeling great, and the weather was incredible. We had such a good time looking around at the different shops and eating pizza and tacos. The kids got 3-D printed items which they were excited about.
Then we all went back to the house, and had Mary blow out candles and unwrap presents. Mary got cement pigs for her garden from Georgia (so cute!), a Harry Potter robe, love notes, and more.
Mary was extremely happy with her birthday, and said it was the best day ever. Mary, we love you so much. You light up our lives with your love, cuddles, musicianship, sweet demeanor, beautiful self-expression and hard work. Thank you for being in our lives, we are so glad you are 11!
Also, as a side-note, today Clarissa spent a very long time creating “weather charts” She was so excited about them and showed them to family members and hung them in her room. So adorable!
