I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE IS FOURTEEN!

Our sweetie is growing up so fast!   Erika started her day with the traditional favorite breakfast and present hunt. Sarah and Anna did a great job of organizing the clues.

She picked Eggs with pizza sauce and bacon bits.

 Present hunting

 Me working on putting Sarah's pictures up.

 sorry dear, Alli used that box for her gift. :)

She did receive her much wanted rash guard for boating. :)

A our friend came over to go boating and finish celebrating Erika's birthday.  It was her first time on a boat, and she did great!

 Erika took a spill and got a bloody lip.

 I think A had a fun time knee boarding.

 Anna is doing great on skis now.

 Erika picked cheese cake for her cake.

and we are finishing off with a movie.
Good night all! I think she liked her birthday. :)

Sarah is 13!

We had a really nice birthday yesterday with Sarah.  After the traditional present hunt, organized by Anna and Erika,

 we headed for the Lake with 7 girls!  

 All went well until the oil light on the van came on.  Being a mechanic's wife, I have learned that red means STOP!
I pulled right into another auto shoppe that suggested I could drive home another 5 miles. NOT! I know better than that.   I called Mike who was at a house painting, and he said, "Call a tow truck", DO NOT DRIVE. 

 While we were waiting for the tow truck we took silly pictures to pass the time. :)

 My friend showed up and took 6 of the girls back with her.

 Erika stayed with me . Here she is in the back seat of the tow truck.

The party resumed after daddy came home with the movie "Super Man", pizza and chocolate cake with strawberries. 

It was a really fun Sarah sort of day! :)

The Thrilling Thirteens! And A TWELVE Too! :)

Today, 3 out of 4 of our girlies are 13! :)
