Today, Carly turned 11!! I can't believe my baby girl is growing so fast!! Since we were in Manila, Carly chose to eat at TGI Fridays, one of her favs! (Not that we were complaining :)
Carly was really surprised to open a new set of colored pencils from Mrs. Jenny....especially since Mrs. Jenny had told her that those were for her daughter! As my Granny always said, "It's ok to lie on birthdays and Christmas." LOL
Caleb gave his sister a little stuffed pug...
....and a big smoochie!!
Our big gift to Carly was a drafting table. But it had to be ordered and we're not sure when it will come in. We also gave her this Nikki Gil cd. She is a Filipina recording artist who has done some work with Disney Asia.
Since half of her birthday was spent in Manila and half in Bacolod, Carly didn't get a birthday cake this year. But she did get a bowl of ice cream with a candle....
....and a loud, obnoxious rendition of the Birthday Song by the wait staff!!
Caleb wasn't impressed!
A note to my daughter.....Happy Birthday, sweet girl. It blows my mind that we've had you for 11 years now. What a joy you have been to me and your dad. You are growing into a beautiful young lady, inside and out, and we love you very much. We are praying this will be a wonderful year for you filled with many blessings!
