Andrea Brooke is 16!
She received fun gifts to go with her new driving adventure--steering wheel cover & key chain. She also asked for a tractor for her birthday. We made sure it was a cute little red & yellow one that she could park in her room. (Andrea has a fascination with farms, tractors, & such.) Does anyone know of a farm for sale? We're not interested, but Andrea might be in the market to buy in the future.
Since Andrea's birthday was on a Wednesday, Aaron and I took her out to Olive Garden for lunch. She then requested spaghetti & homemade meatballs for her birthday dinner. Hmmm, I think there's a trend of Italian food starting.
We were able to surprise Andrea with another birthday request of a flower box for her bedroom window and starter plants for her vegetable garden. She loves getting her hands dirty and see things blossom and grow.
Her friends were so sweet and gave her flowers to celebrate her day and one friend made a specialized frame with things that she loved about Andrea.
I love Andrea because . . .
She's good friends with the weatherman
She appreciates my sense of humor . . . most of the time
She is always there when I need to have a really dramatic breakdown.
She can do anything (even fail) with grace and gorgeousness
Nothing gets past Andrea . . . and that's a good thing
Her earrings are fantastically unique and a great conversation starter
She's so eloquent, especially when mocking me (I am not bitter)
She is Amazing!
To continue celebrating Andrea, we were able to invite the grandparents over during the weekend for dinner at Marie Calendars and then back home for some fresh berry pie.
On Sunday we were able to celebrate the May birthdays with the family. Andrea is able to share her birthday month with her cousin Hazel, who celebrated her 1st birthday this month.
Andrea's friends needed to host a party of their own for her birthday. They decided to bring over lunch and a cake the following Saturday to wish Andrea happy birthday again.
The cake was topped with Forever 21 earrings (Andrea's favorite).
It's fun to see the silly things girls do to have a little fun. Andrea is lucky to be surrounded with so many fun-loving friends.
