One of her favorite presents...her fancy new camera.
Meg was so surprised when some of her favorite little kids she babysits came to visit her. They brought a special birthday card they had made. She was nice and shared the loot with us.
We went to dinner at Megan's favorite pizza place, Grimaldi's.
The kids devoured the cheesecake.
Meg's best friend, Shea, was born the day before her...so they always celebrate together.

Sweet sixteen
Sadly, on Meg's special birthday, she had the most hideous cake possible. She had said she wanted a pie, the morning of her birthday, she thought she might want a cake. I went out to find her a cake and realized there was no time, the day of someones birthday, to get a nice looking cake. I picked out a blank cake and asked the bakery to write a message on it. I didn't know the man I trusted to write on her cake, wasn't a cake decorator. The cake looked really bad. I took it home and stewed about it for awhile. Finally, I used a knife and scraped all the words that the non-cake decorator wrote on her cake. I knew I could write them better than he did. My plan might have worked but I bought gel instead of frosting and the red gel bled all over the cake. The finished product was so much worse than what the non-decorator had done. I was so ashamed. I stuck some cute candles in the cake and apologized a lot.

He looks like he is going to eat some cake...but it was just a show for the camera.
After cake and ice cream, Meg was blind folded, she was not happy about this. I told her she was going to have one more birthday surprise. She wore the blind fold all the way to the

After cake and ice cream, Meg was blind folded, she was not happy about this. I told her she was going to have one more birthday surprise. She wore the blind fold all the way to the Mandalay Bay Hotel.
Ariel and I walked her all the way to the Lion King sign before she was allowed to see what her surprise was. She was so excited. She said it has been a dream of hers for years to see this production. I am so glad that I was able to make one of this sweet little girls dreams come true.
