Ari's 9th Birthday Continued

After our morning of French toast, we headed out on the town to continue to celebrate our girlie.

One outing that's become part of our annual birthday celebration for our girlie is a stop at Starbucks for a Venti 2% Decaf Caramel Frappacino with Whip.  Why, you may ask?  Well, we'd have to thank her great-grandma, a.k.a. Gommer P.  Gommer P. loves Caramel Frappacino's with extra caramel.  On one of her visiting trips she purchased one and gave a sip to the kids.  That was the end!  The kids LOVED it!!! BUT...they're about $5 each and $5 times 3 kids...is a spendy outing reserved for only for Birthday's.

And since Starbuck's is in our local Barne's and Noble store and I love to buy them books, it's one of our favorite celebration stops.

Professional Shopper


She's in search of the next book in her current favorite series

Hmmm...Where is it?

Book #1, #2, #3, #5, #6, #7, #8...Where's Book #4?
We'll have to buy #5 and come back for #4

Starbuck's order complete...waiting

Patiently waiting and praying for a yummy drink!

So excited!  The Frap is almost here!

Yes to WHIP!

And to CARAMEL!

The drink is almost as big as the girlie!

Double your pleasure...double your fun!

Starbuck's, We love you!

After Starbuck's we ran a few errands then headed to the park for FUN!

That's My Girl!

Embracing Life!

She's the best!

I love everything about her!

This is what we do!  She runs and I catch her!

Here she comes!

And this is why I do CROSSFIT!

This is called Kid Press Rx!

Not sure how many more years I'll be able to do this.

Yay for Crossfit!  Working on my overhead press.

The long distance jump.

The advance

The arabesque-mod

The aerial

Playing with the kids keeps a mommy young
And being fun keeps them all laughing


Happy Birthday to our "Answered Prayer"



Hand Stand Push-ups
The L Hold!
We finished our afternoon at her baseball game where she was blessed with the opportunity to pitch.  The game was followed by a team pizza party.







It was a full, fun-filled day.  Mission Accomplished!
