Seriah and her friend McKenzie had a great time playing in the snow and building an igloo with McKenzie's little brother. It even had a window!
After making soap and a lemon cake, it was time for us to go back home to Rio Rancho. As we stepped inside the front door, Seriah remembered that she hadn't made her bed that morning, so she tried to duck into her room to tidy up so McKenzie could see some of the new decorating Seriah's done.
"SURPRISE!!!" Screamed a dozen girls.
Seriah leapt back, practically slamming the door in their faces. (She was literally freaked out. I mean, Seriah's already a jumpy person, so imagine her shock at having all the girls from church jampacked in her bedroom)
It was, obviously, a surprise party for Seriah's Sweet Sixteen, and after she recovered (mostly) from her shock, she enjoyed the party, pizza, and charades. As a friendly warning though, NEVER have Mr. Getty and Mr. Yu write out the movie title slips for charades. There were more than a few-- okay, more like three fourths-- of the movies were things like: Saving Private Ryan, Star Trek, Chariots of Fire... You get the idea. Everyone still had fun, despite the ridiculiously hard charades.
Afterwards, Seriah had to admit it was one of the two best birthday surprises she's ever had. :)
Tsarmina, signing out. 🐾
That is one awe-inspiring snow fort! Glad you enjoyed your birthday, Seriah.

Thanks! No, I made Tsar stay in my bag for that... she might have eaten all the batter before we even got it in the pan! ;D
