This year the request was a small party with a nice dinner out. She recently fell in love with Indian food so we headed to the nearest Indian restaurant in town. Anna invited one close friend and they had a movie/sleepover night after dinner. The night reflected the in betweenness of the age of 12. She wanted to be with her friend but wanted everyone else there too. She's between so many different stages, sometimes I think she's not sure how to feel.
Anna is a fun person to celebrate. She reacts perfectly to praise and adoration and we all enjoyed being with her on her special day. The girls always have the choice to invite their sisters or not and I was glad that Anna chose to involve them.

| My homemade cakes are getting better. This one wasn't tipping too much in any direction. Phew. |

| At the restaurant. The biggest issue was the TV playing Bollywood style videos throughout the meal. Some of them were a bit strange and we did some seat swapping to keep the peace. |

| Anna's been wearing her new watch a lot. |

| A cute hat for a cute girl. |
 |
| This hat totally fits Anna's personality. Just awesome. |
 |
| A lot of candles! |
