Today we finally celebrated Charlotte's 19th Birthday! :D
Char got in from California last night, so all of us prepared some festivities for her today. After I got off work, I hurried to the party store to pick up some Star Wars balloons for the birthday girl. :) I got a huge gliding R2-D2, plus a BB8 balloon,
a Darth Vadar balloon, and several other fun ones! I also picked up some silly masks and plates for the cake. Once Mike was off work, we loaded up the car and headed over to the Donelson's house.
Charlotte was so excited when we carried in the cake—she loved it! I was so glad. :) She also loved the balloons! (And so did Peter...he enjoyed kicking and beating up R2-D2 😅) We had dinner, which was yummy tuna casserole
made by Laura. Afterward, we had cake! It was delicious. I was so happy with how it turned out! We all sat at the table for awhile after, just chatting and laughing and enjoying each other's company.
A little while later, Rach and Laura headed to the library. Charlotte started to show us some new songs she had learned on the piano, then Mike eventually joined and in the two had a jam session!
Eventually the girls came back. Rach had a whole stack of movies for Char to pick from, and she decided she wanted to watch Hitchcock's Psycho. We then all headed upstairs to the media room to watch. The movie was good, though of course that is no
surprise. Char and Mike had never seen it before. They both thought the ending was creepy! :) It was getting late after that, and Mike still had homework to finish, so we headed home.
Char was so thankful for everything. She's especially excited about the birthday gift that Mike and I got her: a pickup for her violin! It's still in the mail, so we told her what it was today while we were over. She made me promise to bring it over as
soon as it comes in. :)
