No Way

There is no way that Leah can be 11 years old!!! It seems like only a few years ago that Drew & I were on our way to the hospital at 6 a.m. so that they could induce labor. But 11 years ago today, we were blessed with a healthy, beautiful & oh so loud baby girl!
We are both so very proud of the young lady she has become. She is sweet, caring, empathetic & ressponsible. It took a lot of sweat & tears to get to this point, but it was all worth it!
Today we took the kids out of school early & paid a visit to Santa (photos to come later-my camera is acting up)! Afterwards we went to lunch at Panera-Leah's pick & favorite restaurant.
We came home & she opened her birthday presents from us & the kids played around the house (it was another rainy & cold day here). I think she had a good birthday & we all enjoyed some special time together!

Here is another layout made using October Afternoon's Silent Night collection. I followed this sketch from Creative Scrappers:
    

And here is my layout:

• Supplies:
