Saturday Afternoon Fun

Michael and Shelby (and Cola) in the house they built outside.

Warming by the pretend fire! :)

A+ for creativity!

Not very sturdy, but it will keep them dry! I think!

Second attempt!

Special Day - Happy Birthday, Shelby!

Happy 11th Birthday,

Shelby Herr!

We took a day off from school to celebrate Shelby's 11th b'day.  We hung out and just did what we wanted to do!  Later we went to the library (one of her favorite things to do) and the park.

A few gifts.

Shelby captured this pile up of the boys!

Opening a gift from her grandparents.  Not sure who was more excited - Shelby or Michael?!?!

The boys gave Shelby a LEGO kit she had wanted!

Other gifts!

Dinner was planned at Applebee's before we would head to church!

Can't beat a kids eat free night on a b'day!

Except Shelby is almost too old to participate!

Dad, Jack & Grant

Michael, Mom & Shelby

Happy Birthday, Shelby!

I love you so much!

Day two of b'day celebrations!

We had a rough night Shelby's b'day night with a sick brother.  Shelby and John had planned to go for her birthday breakfast on Thursday morning.  Well, we had planned a special gift for Shelby.

 At IHOP, John gave Shelby this special bag!

She immediately knew what those earrings meant,

and she was THRILLED!

To my surprise, Daddy took her immediately to get them done!

WOW, how is that for service?!?!?!

There's my girl! We love you, our precious daughter!
