birthday princess

The final celebration of the birthday weekend took place at Grandma Forbes' house today. We took Jocelyn's other grandmother with us too so all of us could be together!

Jocelyn loved each and every gift and went back to college with more than she came home with for sure!

Daughter's are a blessing I cannot even begin to describe. I honestly never thought God would bless Ron and I with a girl. I had been best friends and played sports with guys my whole life, I thought I wanted all boys. In fact I was honestly worried about how I could possibly raise a girl. I just really believed I would be a better parent to boys. God knew who He had for us, the daughter He wanted to bless us with, and Jocelyn can only be described as a blessing. It was a great birthday weekend, it is nearly impossible to believe that it has been 19 years. Life goes fast, I cherish each moment God gives us with our kids!

"Every little girl is a princess" a quote from one of our favorite movies, and it is so true - we tried to give her a birthday befitting a princess...she is our princess! Happy Birthday Joci!!

princess birthday

The princess' birthday has officially begun! This will be a 4 day celebration of our princess' 19th birthday. The festivities began at Easton Town Center in Columbus, one of Jocelyn's favorite places.

We spent some time doing just a little shopping, mostly we just looked, but, we had fun!

Jocelyn's choice for dinner, the Ocean Club! We enjoyed a fabulous dinner of salmon, trout, short ribs and Red Snapper!

And of course we couldn't leave without a Starbucks for the road. Jocelyn and I decided a WalMart stop was necessary when we got back to Mansfield, much to the dismay of our male counterparts. Finally we got everyone home and then it was haircut time!

Jocelyn worked quickly trimming Aaron's hair to perfection before we could all go to bed! It looked great... a beautician is born!

We had a great night of eating, talking and laughing together!
