Birthday Girl!

Jordan turned 12 officially on Tuesday. She had a wonderful day at school that day and came home to the newest member of our family, Sammy. Sammy is a male Betta fish. Jordan had been wanting one for about a month now, so we decided to get her the fish since she had shown that she could be responsible. Sammy is hillarious. He is quite the performer!
After Jordan opened all her gifts, we loaded up in the van and went out to eat at Prima Pasta (this fabulous Italian food restaurant in town). Then, home again for cake. Can you believe that next year she will be a teenager?! Yikes!

Of course, clothes make a good birthday gift.

This is what was left of the cake that Jordan's Wednesday night class at church shared in celebration of her birthday the day before. lol
