Thirteen!!!

August 30th was Marissa’s 13th birthday. Friday she had a party with a couple of her friends. It wasn’t just any party it was a sleepover. They had pizza then went on a scavenger hunt, you know the kind wear you have a list of 20 random items like old toothbrush, sock, old computer part, stuff like that. Then you go and knock on doors and see if they will give you anything. The first team back with all the stuff wins.

The winners

The losers

Then they came back and had a home made ice cream cake that jill made. It had Oreos on the bottom then cookies and cream ice cream then two inches of homemade hot fudge Marissa was pretty impressed.

This is the cake jill made Marissa

after ice cream they played a game of Apples to apples

After the game jill went to bed because well it was 2 a.m. so she left the girls the camera and told them to take pictures. Guess they opened presents after that

Marissa's friend Haley tried to dress her up in a "birthday outfit"

Marissa was super excited to get gift cards to Clair's and tunes

after presents the girls had a dress up fashion show then watched a movie

oh yeah they did make overs too.

We always take our kids out to dinner with just them on their birthday. Marissa’s friend McKenna was staying with because her parents wear out of town so she got to come to dinner with us. Marissa has always picked the same restaurant for the past four years. This is the first time jill was able to come with her though because the past three years on her birthday she has always been sick or in the hospital any way she loves to go to this seafood place in salt lake. It is super good.

this is what Marissa ordered it is fresh Atlantic wild salmon

Happy Birthday Marissa
