Big birthday bash
Last Saturday we went to Meredith and Sam's birthday party. They are 2 years and 2 days apart and most years have a big joint party. This year they are 10 (Meredith) and 8 (Sam) years old. This year's party had a rock climbing wall, live music, ladies who styled the girls' hair, good food, and good weather. We really had fun and were both pretty tired that night!



The birthday girl and some friends with their fancy party hair. Abby did not want to have her hair done but most of the other girls did.



Enjoying party food.



With the birthday girl.



Abby very patiently waiting her turn to climb the rock wall. Believe me, I drilled the rock wall guy before I let her do this but as you will see in the pictures below, Abby only climbed as high as the guy's shoulders. I was so proud of her (and yes, a little nervous, but mostly proud).



Climbing up...

Party hair!!



Abby making sure she is close to the cake. :-)





Abby found a way to get every drop of ice cream.
