Tessa Turns 10!!!

Our Tessa Girl had a birthday!! We sure love having Tessa in our family! She is such a sweet and thoughtful girl, and always willing to help others. She is very complimentary of others and loves to point out the good in her family and friends.
She's so funny and keeps us all laughing! She still has her sharp wit and loves to plan a good prank. She is also in a very silly phase of life right now where she's always making funny faces and poses.
Tessa spends a lot of time every week at her gym. She is love love loving gymnastics, and working so hard at learning new things and improving her skill. She's really developing this talent, and it takes a lot of dedication. It's admirable to watch her work this hard, and also be so encouraging to her friends on her team while they learn together.
Tessa's brothers sure love her! I can easily tell when one of them is playing with Tessa because there's always so much laughing.
Tessa loves wolves, her friends, watching tv, Cafe Rio, mac & cheese, and playing with Hallee. 
Happy birthday Tessa Bess! We love love love you!!

Her birthday was on a Saturday this year, so we had a whole day of celebrations. Paul made crepes for breakfast. 
And then she wanted to open presents. :)
She loved the wolf from Damon and the blue-light glasses from Rockwell!
She was so excited for her Heely's and has gotten pretty good using them now.  She loves her new leotard, Rainbow Loom kit, erasible pens, wolf blanket, and slippers.

I thought it was so sweet that Damon decided to do Tessa's chores for her since it was her birthday.

Her friends came over for her party and Tessa opened her presents from them.
Then we went to Lowe's Xtreme Air Sports. Hallee, Morgan, and Avery were able to come, and sadly Alyssa was sick and couldn't make it.
They had a blast jumping for an hour! Tessa and Morgan thought it was so fun that they had a bar too. :)
After the party, Hallee came home with us and spent the rest of the day with Tessa. I made mac & cheese for lunch and they made the mermaid garden that Hallee gave her. Then they played in the basement for hours. :)
We went to Cafe Rio for dinner, and then we had some of the amazing wolf cake that Paul made. Isn't it so cute?!
I think she had a pretty perfect day!!
