The birthday girl was put to work, too. She made a platter full of fruit kabobs.
Good friends arrive to hang out, do crafts, play piano, paint nails, play goofy games, and eat lots of food!
And, I got a big thank you in the end!

A Birthday To Remember
It was a delightful day to turn thirteen.
Nana arrived well ahead of the guests in order to make the dainty cupcakes. (Thank you, Mom! So glad you could be here for this special day.)
The birthday girl was put to work, too. She made a platter full of fruit kabobs.
A gift of fresh lavender added charm to the table. (It's now planted out front with the zinnias. )
One special touch to the hostess before guests arrived.

And, I got a big thank you in the end!
