December 14, 2024-Happy 15th Birthday (Party) Campbell!

(click for today's pictures)

  • I was the first one up this morning. When I went upstairs, Graham was telling his alarm to go off in 5 minutes. I sat in the living room until he walked through for his shower and then stayed in my chair until he drove off for his ACT test.
  • He questioned me yesterday when I told him he would need to leave 45 minutes early, but in today's rainy mess, it took him a bit longer to get across town for his test. Who knows how he did, but he has really worked hard getting ready for it lately.
  • Not too long after he left, Robby and I ran a few errands. The most fun errands that we did were picking up Campbell's birthday cake and me finding some jeans at Old Navy for my Christmas. When we came home, I went to work on party prep while Robby worked on the garage. 
  • I eventually decided that a short nap would benefit me so I did that for a while. Then I went back to work on cooking. Because of my little siesta, I was behind the rest of the afternoon and evening.
  • I think that I had mentioned that Anderson won a scholarship from the Korean Grocer's Association. The banquet to receive the scholarship was tonight, and if you don't go, then you don't get the money-so Robby and Anderson went since I was on party patrol. It has been quite the banquet-they are currently still there. 
  • Meanwhile, Campbell had 17 friends come over for to celebrate her birthday. She has only had a few birthday parties in December so close to her birthday. Not only did she have her balloon arch, but there was also a candy bar. I had Mexican and all of the trimmings for supper.
  • She even had games to play including bingo and who knows the birthday girl best. There was karaoke plus a pinata and lots of presents for our birthday girl. I worked cleaning while the girls were all still here, so most things are already picked up.
  • It has been a pretty busy day, but I think that tomorrow might provide time for a real nap!
