MK is 10!!!


MK turned 10 on Monday, April 7th. We let her open presents on the Thursday night before since we left for our trip on Friday. Some of her comments are posted below:


Aunt Lesa gave here a cute outfit with a shirt and short skirt with shorts underneath:

"It's a matching outfit! I can wear it for tennis!"

She starts tennis lessons next week.


While unwrapping presents: "Ooh, this is really pretty paper!"


Nana and Papa gave a variety of things.

pink house slippers: "I've always wanted house shoes like these!"

underwear: "Underwear!"

She equates receiving underwear with that line from "The North Pole" "all I got was some stupid underwear!" But she liked them.


She did get her American girl:

"I knew I was getting an American girl doll!"

This was after weeks of begging us to tell here what we were getting her.


When I told her that we were going to give her a Wii, she said: "Good, I didn't want a Wii!"


She's 10 now. We are still celebrating her Birthday week. Did you know that girls celebrate their birthdays for the whole week? We were in Amsterdam on Sunday night and ate at the Hard Rock Cafe. They gave her a Hard Rock Cafe birthday pin. On Tuesday, she had two friends for a sleepover and I made her favorite dinner: barbecued chicken legs, shelly cheese, salad and garlic bread and a Birthday Brownie. No cake for this 10 year old, she wants brownies now! The actual birthday party is Sunday at the bowling alley. This time, she is only allowed to invite 7 girls. It was easy since we are still in the middle of Spring Break and just about every one is gone!


There was a fingerprint on the camera lense so all of the pictures we took of MK opening her presents are blurry. Thanks, everyone for helping to make MK's birthday week extra special!
