Turning 12


Our Mary Grace turned 12 and we celebrated 
for three whole days!



When you're the youngest of five and the only girl, sometimes you have to be a little bit EXTRA.


We started off with a trip to the mall for some shopping and getting her ears pierced.  
She was such a trooper and didn't even flinch!  Now she can hardly wait for the six weeks to pass to get some fun and funky earrings to wear.

 

I had taken to FaceBook to ask about fun places to have lunch or dinner to celebrate.  You all gave some great ideas and I was excited to take her out.  When lunch time rolled around, do you know what she wanted?  
Mall pizza and her favorite drink from Starbucks!


The next day, we had a girls night out and went to see the Taylor Swift ERAS TOUR movie.  It was so cute seeing her sing and dance to the music.  She even came prepared with friendship bracelets to trade!


The last day of celebration stole the show!
Our #3 son, and Mary Grace's best buddy-John Paul, came into town to take her to her first concert.  They ventured into downtown Houston for Suki Waterhouse.  And honestly, I have no idea who she is or what she sings!  But Mary loved it and rode that high through the weekend.


Oh, and there was even a solar eclipse in her honor!

Fitting, don't you think?
But I don't know how we'll top THAT next year!
