In just a little less than a year, she'll be a teen

We celebrated G's birthday at my parent's house yesterday. G wants to buy a marimba and so she told everyone she wanted money for her birthday.

The beginning....


The middle....


The end...


She started counting her money, which of course was interrupted and had to be restarted thanks to her grandpa...


So then her dad sat with her and made sure grandpa wasn't able to pull off another one of his shenanigans ....


She didn't get quite enough money for a marimba, but she'll get one soon because her dad is going to cover the rest.

It was a good day. I'm sure I'd have different thoughts if it was a drum set she wanted.

Noodly boy loves the camera....
