Andrew got me a kindle! After I stopped working, I discovered my love of reading… This is great, honey!

Actually this is from last week’s service.

Christmas service tonight.

This guy’s been very busy with all these basketball tournaments and practices for a month now and tonight, the team won the championship! Great job boys!

Our good old friends came to visit from out of town today!

Shane had his second guitar recital today. He’s been playing guitar for little over a year now and I’m loving listening to him playing.

The video from the recital wasn’t good so I recorded them playing at home:

Shane’s so lucky to have such an awesome teacher!

Guests have arrived!

Shane also got a playdate.

Three legged race

While they are out, I prepared hot chocolate & dessert plates for the cake.

Birthday cake!

Surprise!

LOVED the girls’ reactions when I cut the cake. Totally made my 9 hrs of labor making the cake sooooo worth it!

Came out better than I thought!

Let the good times continue~

We extended the party until 8pm because they were having so much fun. We ended the night with Home Alone 3.
WHAT A FUN DAY.

I prepared brunch for the guests.

Blueberry croissant puff

Spinach & Ham Cheese Puffs

Pear walnut ricotta crostini

Birthday girl!

For dinner, she also made her favorite food, Kalbi!

Andrew brought home her favorite strawberry short cake from the city!

Happy birthday Chloe! You are 12!!!!!!!!!!!!
