Happy 12th Birthday my gentle Dove
Dove was celebrated today
Not her actual birthday but as close as we could accomplish it and keep up with all the weekend events...
We four went to a morning movie (gotta love those matinee prices)
It was so fun!
Ice Age 3
Afterward we went for an errand to Target we had a half an hour to use up and napkins to get. She noticed the fourth of July napkins and I wanted to get her napkins that were special. They had run out of them so I got some blue napkins
Mc Donald's was next stop where we met up with Her Aunt (my sister) and the Grand Parents for a lunch. We were also thrilled to have my BILove join us after he had helped a friend fix a head light on a motorcycle. It was nice to all be together.
Steve and I dashed back to the house and the kids were in tow of the Elders.
So we made a few mad dash last efforts and wrapped the gifts.
She really enjoyed herself as well as all of us I believe.

gentle and thrilled with her cake
She was so happy with Dash's present and that just made him so happy.
We got a DVD of a Jonas Brother Concert and after the party we all sat together and watched it.It was pretty good. The music was alright of course I grew on on rock and roll.
Dove received a purse from the Folks
A framed photo print of "Nick"
Auntie gave her a pillow that she was so very thrilled to have.
Auntie even concidered the Dash Man and gave him a Lego building toy to make. He had it finished and about 15 minutes he just sucks that sort of thing up like a sponge.
I thought that was so sweet of her to do.
Now the folks awaited the last moment and last gift and gave her a comforter.
This a VERY generous gift.
She was in Jonas heaven!
Oh these pre-teen years are so cute!
We all were still full of our lunch so cake and well wishes
She wanted the face of Nick
I let her light the candles as a right of passage
Now look at the agony!
Oh mom don't cut him...
It was then that it was pointed out that I forgot the 'e' on you're opps...
She did not eat her cake!
It was just too upsetting for her...
:)
After all was done and the guest departed we all sat together to watch the concert.
Half way through I fell asleep on the sofa only to awake as it was ending.
The fun had caught up with me...
Hahaha
So now I will rest this evening out.
I posted a tutorial photo post on a
Place To Create.
Home made fondant, it will get words another day...

I am so glad that Dove enjoyed her day, love you all.
Sounded like a sweet day was had by all, Ahhhhhh, yes, the preteen birthdays where always fun with Amanda, and once I did make your own Sunday, now that was fun and so yummy. That comforter is especially cute, just like her! The whole Jonas thing is just so sweet, and you did a fabulous job on that cake, I'd go into cake decorating on the side if I where you, too bad I didn't have you around the corner when I needed cakes! You have got to be the best Momma I know! Rest well my friend
Hugs & Love~
