At the risk of feeling like a horrible mother I will blog about my daughters birthday two weeks late. Since Abs had a party last year, I told her that this year we would not be having a party, but that she could do whatever she wanted to that day. My hopes in doing this, were to be spending less money. Leave it up to MY daughter to choose Mall of America. The wristbands for the rides there are $30 a piece, thus no money saved...in fact more money spent. Luckily Papa was in town. Thank you Brent for everything! We had a really fun night at the mall riding rides, having a birthday dinner at Tony Romas, and laughing our heads off. I was glad I finally got to go on the rides. I was pregnant the last two times we went there. Sandra was nice enough to stay with Noah while we all went on the rides. I know it was a HUGE sacrifice for her! Yeah right. We came home and sang happy birthday to Abs and let her open her presents. (We didn't leave the mall until 11:30 that night. My kids got to see the ball drop....it was awesome!) It was a great day. We love you Abbie!
