Sweet Sixteen

Rachel will be 16 on February 11th. We're having her party next Saturday. We made up these invitations for her to distribute to her friends. I love the paper she picked. It's such fun!


We're going to have dinner and then see the movie, "Valentine's Day", which opens the night before. I brought Rachel home from the hospital on Valentine's Day so I've always considered her my little Valentine. Her birthday parties have always had a Valentine theme, but we're sweet sixteen now and little goody bags with heart rings, stickers, pencils and candies won't cut it anymore.

City Place is a fun place on a Saturday night with a band in the center court and lots of tables and chairs set under palm trees aglow with tiny white lights. There's a cute little trolley that takes you from City Place to Clematis Street where there are lots of fun restaurants and quaint little shops. And it's a great place to people watch. We get many visitors this time of year and you never know who you might see there! Should be fun. I'll keep you posted!!
