Last week we celebrated Anna’s 10th birthday! The day we celebrated, we went to the York Country Industrial Museum for the afternoon and enjoyed seeing all sorts of things that used to be manufactured in York. The exhibit that fascinated our kids the most was the one with phones to call each other. We bought Anna a car for her birthday!

Anna decided on an ice cream cake for her birthday. Uncle Joey came for a taco dinner. After gifts we tested a game Becca is designing with a goal of marrying well (gaining the most points from a good match!).

One of Anna’s birthday gifts was a shopping trip for new dresses and lunch out. We had fun finding her some clothes for playing in – Anna likes wearing dresses and leggings to play outside.

Anna is a sweet, kind young lady, who is always looking for ways to help. She is especially helpful with younger children and looks for ways to entertain them. Anna is friendly and the first to welcome other girls in a new environment. I love watching Anna interact with others. Clara and Anna are the best of friends, and they love playing dolls and dress-up together.

We visited my grandma this week, and Anna was a champ helping her great grandma. We’re so thankful for Anna’s kindness and tender heart to others.
