It's true. The day we've all been dreading but knew would come eventually. I have a teenager! Luckily, Rachel is the most wonderful, amazing, awesome teenager ever so it really hasn't been bad. Actually....it's been great!
She didn't have 13 fingers to hold up so she had a little help.
And someone thought I was taking his picture for some weird reason. :)
We let her open a present in the morning.
How did Will know that's what she loves? Wait...you're not supposed to eat that with braces!
I just had to throw this one in of Will's jammies. Ha ha!
We spent the day swimming at the Jones' pool which was really nice. It was even better because the Maynes girls came with us (and Molly Nybo). Rach didn't want a party this year so that was a fun way to celebrate the day.
When dad finally got home she opened the rest of the presents.
Ahhh...the awkward brother/sister hug.
What she DID want to do this year was go on a date with Trav and I. Just the 3 of us. It was SO much fun! First, we went to the Escape Key to a CSI escape room. I've gotta say...Rach did awesome in there! We were lucky enough to get a room to ourselves so it was just the 3 of us. We were solving clues like crazy and even disarmed the bomb with 8 minutes to spare!
Then we went to the Olive Garden for a yummy dinner. Rach got a fancy drink that had cotton candy on top.
We came home for some strawberry shortcake deliciousness.
It really was such a fun day and I'm SO happy that I have this amazingly wonderful teenager living in my house. Love ya, Rach!!
