Happy 12 Birthday Callie!

Callie is officially 12 years old!!
We love having this girl in our family! She is so much fun and fills our home with...
  • creativity
  • enthusiasm
  • love
  • kindness
  • affection
  • competition
  • curiosity
  • playfulness
  • compassion
  • laughter
  • honesty
  • music
This year her birthday party started at her school's girls basketball game. Her friends have been the unofficial "cheerleaders" at these games. They bring posters and homemade pom poms and even a big paper banner for the team to run through (just like in the movies). They get the crowd cheering and doing the wave. We are the only middle school to have "cheerleaders". They are really the cutest girls and they are especially loud when Callie goes into play. She had quite the cheering section last weekend, between all her friends and our entire family (Courtney & Daniel were there too).
After the basketball game, the girls played Bunco. A little music, candy and a fun game and these girls are very happy!
Happy Birthday Callie! We love you!!

Looks like they had fun. I guess the question of what to do for Callie's birthday was finally decided.

How fun and that cake looks great especially since I know what's inside of it! :) Wish we could have been there to watch callie play.
