I am now officially 14, as of 8:55 pm on January 14.
Whenever one of the kids has a birthday, Mom always tries to take a picture at the minute they were born.
Here are the pictures from my birthday on Saturday.
I had a cake with horse models on top of it a couple years ago, and I had saved the horse models. I had wanted another cake like that one, but Helena hadn't wanted to make it. So we decided to just have cupcakes with the horse models on top. We used blue Sour Belts for the streams, red apples for apples, and jelly beans and chocolate rocks for rocks.

Robin Hood TV show, from Mom and Dad. |

And THE 101 G.A. HENTY NOVELS ON CD!!!!
Also from Mom and Dad.
I have always loved the G.A. Henty books, and
when we came across this I immediately put
it on my wishlist! I am so happy I got it!!! |
I loved watching the 1935 "A Midsummer Night's Dream" for my birthday! It was everything I was expecting, and more!! I had just read it, but I didn't know that the movie was going to be so funny! I especially liked the Pyramus and Thisbe performance at the end! I thought it was hilarious!! The whole movie was great. I guess when you take a book that has some pretty funny parts, and make it into a movie with actors who add little tiny things, and just add their whole manner of acting, it will end up pretty funny. I must have watched it 3 or 4 times since my birthday!
P.S. If you are wondering why it's been so long since I posted, blame it on my Henty CD. I've been reading it as much as possible.
