Emily Turns 8!

It's hard to believe that Emily turned 8 this year! Instead of doing a big party, she invited her friend Leah to go with us to the Museum of Fine Arts. The girls were wild in the car, but they were so sophisticated in the museum. They were very well-behaved and discussing the art very seriously. I couldn't understand why all of the security guards at the museum kept looking at us. Finally, one of them came up and in a very shy, apologetic way, asked if we had checked in and gotten our stickers. It was free night at the museum, so we had just strolled in without getting our stickers, and apparently, this was causing a stir. I think the security guards were contacting each other about us on their walkie-talkies! Matthew went and got us our stickers, and then we were fine!

After the museum, we went to Goode Company BBQ for a delicious dinner. It's a good thing we're not vegetarians! After dinner, we brought out the M&M cake and ice cream and sang Happy Birthday. It was really fun! To top off the night, we let Emily and Leah roll down the hill at the Miller Outdoor Theater.
