Friday Favorites

Linking up again with Erika for Friday Favorites!  I didn't get a chance to recap our weekend, so that's throw in here too....

1.  Saturday Rachel and I went dress shopping with her 3 BFF's and their moms.  The girls have 8th grade graduation coming up in June (insert big ugly cry here) and wanted to find dresses.  We love, love, loved this dress, the back was a little too open for Rachel's comfort zone, so we didn't get this one.  But the one she got is very similar to this style, but in different shades of blue.  

Is it just me, or is she gorgeous?  And old...and too grown up...and stop freaking growing please...hand me the tissues...

2.  I LOVE these girls, can't say it enough...

3.  After shopping and lunch, the families came over to watch the Minnesota Wild play, and then we played volleyball out back for about 4 hours!  This was the dads taking the girls on.  Girls won.  Just sayin.

4.  Then on Thursday, this beauty turned 12, *sigh*...

I mean seriously, wasn't this picture just taken like yesterday??

She had a fabulous birthday, and I will be doing a birthday post on Monday, as her party is tomorrow.

5.  This weekend will be busy, but fun.  Tonight we are staying home and organizing closets, whoop whoop!!  Saturday her friends are coming at 4:00 for a sleepover, her theme is "Paris".  Can't wait!  And then Sunday we are having Brad's family over to celebrate Emma and Alayna's birthdays.  Busy busy!
