Mid-Week Celebration

Well, you only turn 11 once and there was a lot of excitement about the big day. It started off with following a maze of string to a hidden gift, followed by eating some 'junk' cereal for breakfast and then taking in cupcakes to share with friends at school. In the evening, it was time to open gifts!

Notice the Nesquik cereal, especially for breakfast.

Ready to open presents in the evening.

New pointe shows! We had to sew on the ribbons and elastic ourselves. Thank goodness for YouTube so we could find out how to do that.

Apparently it isn't as hard as it looks. There are silicone toe protectors on underneath. It still looks painful to me.

We had time for a new game as well - Mad Gab. You are given words and have to figure out what the phrase is. For example, given Mile Hit Help Oh Knee = My little pony

Lots of fun!
