It's my girl's 13th Birthday.

We had a great day shopping and lunching just the two of us today. We ate too much at Panera and stayed in budget in Old Navy. Great sales in Old Navy too.

McGinley wanted "skinny" jeans after wearing a friend's at camp this week. Interestingly enough she is skinny enough to wear "skinny" jeans and look good. Wench. ;)

And the evidence:



Here are a few more pictures from her birthday party tonight with family:



This is a dress she picked out today while we were shopping. I was amazed at the fact that she actually picked a dress. She is so not my girly girl. But it is a good choice and I think she'll enjoy wearing it.


And her birthday cake she requested:



And the final great birthday present from Mimi and Pop Pop:



Each girl in our family receives a birthstone ring from their Mimi and Pop Pop on their 13th birthday. Each one has been unique to the girl so far. McGinley was excited to see she did indeed have a ring box in that big bag!

We have so enjoyed and been blessed by the creation that is our McGinley. God surely makes some unique and awesome people. We're just thrilled she is one of our people.

In the midst of Christ's abundant blessings,

Peg
