A Very Monkey Birthday

The Monkey turned 12 this year, and I believe this will be the birthday that never ends.

She only wanted a couple things:

1) A trip to Florida to visit our best buddies down there.

2) Going back to the State Fair in Iowa, as we used to do when she was little.

Florida is still in the works, but we did make it to the state fair.

On with the saga:

We had a pretty quiet day on the birthday itself. Monkey had her vision for her cake for quite awhile. It only required me to drive her to Publix to buy all the parts.

She wanted three things for the birthday meal:

Aunt A, Uncle Z, and Cousins came over to eat cake and celebrate with us.

Monkey received books, doll items, and after we got to Iowa, she and Grandma Iowa got pedicures.

More to come about the rest of her birthday adventures.
