Our Paisley girl sure loves her donuts!
Grandma and Grandpa G stopped by to give her their love and well-wishes. So sweet.
Turning thirteen is a big deal! She wanted to have a friend party, so I suggested a Mall Scavenger hunt! We had the gals meet us at the fountains at the Provo Mall so that more could be involved. (The van can only seat so much~ This probably made half not able to make it, but what to do???)
They started with dinner, then instruction and their scavenger list. They chose to all stay in one group and try to beat Zeke and his friends. (Who took up most of the seats in the van ;) ). When they all came back we sang to Paisley real loud, opened gifts and had donut holes and soda for dessert.
This mall was a perfect choice since it was just our group and four other people shopping.
It was great fun! The only problem was waiting almost an hour for one gals mom to come get her so we could go home. Good grief.
Adren was just across the street working so he walked over after his shift and came home with us.
And best friends.
Paisley continues to be the sweetest thing. She is so compassionate towards others, has the softest heart, takes her school work so seriously and is doing so great in 7th grade! She is still, of course bonkers for Sookie (I include this because she includes her in everything.) She adds a sweetness to our family and even if two of her brothers wouldn't say it out loud, WE LOVE YOU, PAISLEY!!!
