Stephanie's & Abbey's Birthdays

We went to Cincinnati for Stephanie's birthday the end of January.  We got her roller skates and a little trampoline, and summer clothes.  They had the party at a pottery center where the kids got to paint plates.  Luckily, the weather cooperated and we were able to go there to help celebrate.  We never know if there is going to be snow the end of January.

Abbey's twelfth birthday was the third of February, so we had them over for dinner and Amy and Dave and the kids came, too.  I had gotten her a new winter coat a couple of weeks earlier, and on her birthday we gave her a puffy vest, some shorts and shirts, a GAP gift card, and a night stand for her room.  Rob took her and a few friend to the Bounce Zone and out to dinner for her birthday on Saturday; she invited her best friend Sophie and three boys from her class.  When he asked her why she didn't invite any girls, she said they are all too high drama.
