Great 8 for Sweet Reese

We had the privilege of celebrating Reese's 8th birthday last week.  What a pleasure she is to us.  I cannot express what a delight it is to be her mother. 

This year, she chose to take a few friends for an afternoon of go-cart riding, mini golf, food and fun followed by a sleepover.

These girls are literally just a hair too short to be able to drive the big go-carts by themselves, so they took turns riding with Pete and I and then rode some on the smaller ones they could drive on their own.  We spent two hours playing and then headed to one of our favorite restaurants for dinner and birthday dessert before heading to the casa for a night of 8 year old girl fun.  It was a good group and we survived the night without any drama (that's pretty amazing for a group of 8 year old girls!).

Happy Birthday Reese!
