Happy Birthday, Annamarie
Today, Annamarie turns ten years old!
Whoa! We’re into the double digits with the little ones! Time sure flies!
She is the child with a consistently easygoing and happy disposition.
She is the one who has a healing touch. You know? The kind of person who can lay a hand on your forehead and you feel immediate comfort, and not quite so icky!
She’s the quiet one. The one that scares the thunder out of me when she comes up behind me in the kitchen and speaks! I scream – she giggles. Oh heart, be still!!!
She’s the conservative one. The one who prefers a basic black skirt and white blouse.
Also, she has always liked purple.
She likes red roses.
She likes playing in the snow.
She likes her sisters and playing with them.
She likes JanaLyn, technically her niece, but only 4 years younger than her!
She’s the one who learned to sit quietly, before any of the other girls.
Annamarie is currently out on a lunch date with her dad.
Jesse’s new way of doing something special for the girls. A time with only them as center of attention.
I’m home putting out the gifts.
Frosting her cake and decorating it.
AND, preparing for her birthday dinner later tonight.
She has requested “Party Food” which means the things I used to fix for Super Bowl Sunday. Translated, that would be finger foods or appetizers.
* Fried chicken strips
* Carrot and celery sticks
* Ranch dip for both of the above
* Lil’ Smokies with barbecue sauce
* Mini quiches
* Tortilla pinrolls with a variety of stuffings
* Sweet mini gherkin pickles and black olives
* Hot spinach and artichoke dip.
* And . . . (drum roll please!) RED VELVET birthday cake with CREAM CHEESE FROSTING!
She’s a sweet girl and I’ll be sure to take lots of pictures tonight and share the birthday girl’s party with my Xanga friends soon!
Happy Birthday, Annamarie.
Dad, your sisters, and I love you!!!
Be Blessed ~
