Soren's 13th Birthday!

I only have a few pictures to post here, and they do not begin to tell of the joy that was experienced in the celebration of Soren's 13th Birthday!

Soren was able to start her birthday celebration the day before with a cousin day at Nana's complete with cake and games followed by a sleepover.  On the morning of her birthday, Pete picked her up along with her friend Kirsten and Reese and they headed for Great Wolf Lodge indoor water park!  I was able to join that afternoon and took over for the evening and following day.  It was an incredibly fun and exhausting trip.  The girls played until the hotel curfew (midnight) brought them back to the room for a short rest and then they were right back at it in the morning.

I cannot put into words how proud I am of Soren.  She is a sweet, kind, generous, loving young woman who is not afraid to be herself and knows how to work hard.  I am so blessed to have a daughter like her and cannot wait to see what the future holds for her.  Love you, Soren!  Happy Birthday!
