Well, we officially have a teenager in the house!!! It’s hard to believe, but on 5/23, Nina turned thirteen!
We are very proud of the young lady she’s growing up to be. She’s smart, fun, athletic, kind, loves Jesus, and when Nina is around you can guarantee that you’ll always have someone to talk to. We’ve watched her grow into more of a leader this year, get out of her comfort zone with her activities, and she hasn’t just grown in intangible ways, she’s also gotten a lot taller this year! :)
Since her birthday was the Thursday before Memorial Day, we celebrated her that day with a special breakfast, her favorite dinner, presents, and her requested cake (chocolate cake with chocolate icing and lots of layers).
We waited until the following weekend to officially celebrate with her birthday activity. She wanted to take two of her best friends to Water Country for the day, so on Sunday I took the girls down to Williamsburg, and we had a blast at Water Country. The weather was perfect and it wasn’t too crowded, so they got to ride/do everything they wanted multiple times. They went non-stop all day (other than a quick break for lunch), then we left around 6:30 and stopped at Cook Out for dinner and milkshakes before driving home. The girls were all exhausted when we got back, but they had a great time, and I was so glad we got to celebrate Nina with a fun day!
