Birthday Week (Day Two)

Our oldest daughter is now 11 (big, big, sigh). We had planned on spending the day at the lake, but out of nowhere, a big dark cloud came and it started raining =-(

I'd say she was devastated, but the truth is, our good friends the G6 had just given her and Em the Wii resort game. Needless to say, she (and the rest of the girls) were well entertained for the entire morning.

Sheree (Mom of G6) called to offer to watch her little sisters so she could have some Mommy time and we totally took her up on it!

She wanted to get her bangs trimmed, but they were booked for the day, so we went to the store, bought some "safe" and temporary hair coloring and a few other things she wanted, and then picked up the sisters to head home to color her hair.

Thanks so much Sheree!!

It's wet in the picture, but it is definitely darker. Last year her Goo-Goo Xuan (Aunty) put a few highlights in, and the dye covered them up. She totally ♥'s it! She also ♥'s lemon meringue pie, which is why she chose it for her dessert.

Each of her sisters made her a special card. (Thanks again for Sheree, for helping me get the little ones to make theirs!).

Em did bubble letters, just like the one Haley had done for her the day before. So cute how they admire and look up to those big sisters.

Happy birthday Haley! We ♥ you!!!
