Tuesday, November 18th was Thera's 6th Birthday. She got to play hooky from school and had a very nice day with Mom. The day started off with the chance to sleep in a little longer than usual and see Chase off on the bus. Thera picked out a very pretty dress and Krista got her all dolled up with hair and make-up for the day out. They went shopping with birthday money and some gift cards, then went to McDonalds for lunch. (Funny thing there is - that really is kind of a treat since we go there so little. Even when given the choice both Chase and Thera are more likely to go for Subway than regular fast food.) After that it was off to the movies for Beverly Hills Chihuahua. Once done there they picked up Chase and headed to Publix to pick out a Birthday Cake. I left work a little early and met up with them there. It was a good day to be at Publix since they were doing a Holiday Food Festival with lots of great samples. We joked around with Thera about how they must have set the whole thing up for her birthday! She knew it was really for Thanksgiving but it was fun pretending, and when the store staff found out that it was her B-day it might as well have been...
We finally got home and I got the presents set out and made a small dinner since we had all done pretty well at the Food Fest. Krista disappeared upstairs to do the wrapping - better her than me as wrapping is just not my forte. We brought out the cake for a very nice dessert and then it was time for Thera to open up her presents. She got some great things and had a wonderful time.
