Diana’s 12th Birthday Party

Wednesday, July 28

 

 

Her birthday party was a few days early, because we were taking her, Gloria, and Jana along to Maine in the morning – and she would be there on her birthdate.

 

 

Animal rubber band bracelets – the kind many kids like to wear and trade these days.

 

 

This was a trick gift – a shirt from her closet – to sidetrack her from the real gift from her parents.

 

 

Now she knows what her real gift is because this is a clip of bullets for a Remington rifle.

 

 

She has wanted to be a hunter since she was quite small, and has never given up on that goal – so she was one happy twelve-year-old.

 

 

She has completed her hunter safety course, and is ready for the opening of deer season this fall.

Gloria also wanted her picture taken through the window.

When our belles were full of cake and ice cream, we took Diana and Gloria home with us (after picking up their cousin Jana) in preparation for getting up early the next morning to begin a road trip to Maine.
