More Birthday Photos

For Meggie's birthday we traveled south for a day at The Gardens Mall.  We did a bit of shopping, had a nice lunch (her choice was Subway...LOL!), followed by more shopping and finished up with Starbucks before our trip home.

She wore her new A&F tee shirt straight out of the store.

I couldn't convince her to eat at California Pizza Kitchen, darnit!  

And you can see by the look on her face that she wasn't  

exactly happy about being photographed while eating.

This girl loves her Mocha Frappacinos!  

After a short rest at home we went out for a birthday dinner at the place of her choosing.  Surprisingly it was a Mexican/Caribbean restaurant, The Key Lime Cantina, the same place we had a girls lunch when my aunt was here visiting.  (Meg was not with us.)

But the biggest shocker of all.....this girl ordered and ate shrimp!  

After dinner she chose to have frozen yogurt at a shop downtown.  This was the first year we didn't have a birthday cake nor any candles.  "sniff"

(Excuse the bad Iphone photo....and notice Randy's shadow in the background.  LOL!)

On our way home Meg remarked, "This was my best birthday yet.  I wish I could get up and do it again tomorrow."

She's twelve and just spent a wonderful day with only her parents.  I know it won't last but it I think it was her best birthday ever as well.
