Happy eleventh, Emily!

Emily, reacting to an $ll cash gift from her Godfather Marcus.

Mom, with her friend, Diane

 She's 11 years old. We had a birthday party in the sunshine today. Lots of gifts for a much-loved pre-teen. She had her other birthday party earlier, with her young friends. Grandma, grandpa, godfather and aunt were not invited then. :).Today we made up for it. Missy threw a brunch at her place.
Aunt Marcy couldn't make it. She's in Denver, in charge of the punch at a friend's wedding.
