Birthday Mer

I am super sad and super sorry that I haven't posted in almost 3 months. Yikes. Blogging has fallen last on the list so frequently that I've fallen out of the habit of doing it.  So much catch up to do. So many things I want to record so I don't forget so I'll start here where I left off.

The end of the school year brought a birthday celebration for Mer. She turned FIFTEEN. She had to take a final that morning and then spent the afternoon with her friend Bethany. They shopped and had lunch in downtown Melbourne. 

After a fun afternoon she opened up presents in the evening

She wanted Baked Apples with Ice Cream and caramel for dessert.

Blow out the Candles Mer!!

After dinner we "ruined" Mer's birthday by making her play in her first Basketball game. She had her friend Cassidy come along for moral support. 

She tried her best not to have any fun playing the game. 

We love this fun, fashion loving, super helpful girl. Oh and then a few days after her birthday she got her driver's permit, watchout!
