All Things Girlish

We had a great time celebrating Rebecca's 13th birthday.

We started the fun with picking up some lunch and heading to the fountains to eat.

Then we went to the mall to get Rebecca's ears pierced.  She was sooo nervous!

But she survived.  It wasn't that bad!

She had several friends over for a very, very elegant birthday party.

They all worked together and make this beautiful picture wreath for her.

Each of them decorated a picture of themselves and attached it to the wreath.  It is a beautiful keepsake.

They had a delicious dinner of chicken nuggets with four sauces to choose from and caesar salad, followed by cheese fondue.

She received many pairs of earrings as gifts.

While they ate dinner and did their nails, they watched every episode of Anne of Green Gables.  The house was full of laughter and giggles at the antics of Anne.

We made Apricot Parfait for dessert.  I didn't realize it at first, but everything in this dish was home made, even the apricot preserves.

The girls put mourning flowers on the tv when Matthew Cuthbert died.

I experimented on the girls' hair by making sock buns.  The goal was to have beautifully curly locks in the morning.  It was interesting to see the different results.

They had a wonderful time making memories.
