We celebrated Miri's 10th birthday on Oct. 20th. She has been waiting for a long time to have two numbers in her age. After stuffing ourselves on 2-for-1 foot-long Subway sandwiches, Miri's choice for dinner, we had a party.
This is Miri opening her presents. Her big present was a nice scrapbooking kit. The children are always asking me when I'm going to work on their scrapbooks. lol!! The last time I did that was when Miri was tiny, before Caroline, who is a time-sponge, came along. Nine years ago, I was actually up-to-date in my scrapbooking. Now I don't even know where the scrappy books are. (Back then, we called them "scrappy books" because the Tigger Movie had just come out and that's what Tigger called them.) So, I'm relinquishing my scrappy book duties to the girls who have time and who love to do it. Maybe I'll have them make my scrapbook too. :-)
Miri chose Italian cream cake for her dessert. Now that is some goooooood frosting! We had to light the candles twice because she "blew" it the first time. :-)
This is Miri (and Joelle and Kainoah) wrapped up in her new Snuggie-- a blanket with arms so that she can read and still stay warm. Funny -- needing a Snuggie in Hawaii, but the nights are starting to get chilly up here on our volcano.
