13 going on 30...or so she thinks

My big girl is 13.

And for her birthday she wanted a make over. Alex's mom (Candra) partied right along with us.

First stop on or trip to beauty is Kids Hair Safari. Ms. Becky has cut Alex's hair since she opened the doors. She was thrilled to put Alex's hair up in a fancy due.

Wow doesn't that look GREAT!!!

Alex was so sweet to include her little sister. Emma wasn't so sure about all those Bobby Pins so she just went for cute piggies...much more age appropriate!

Next is was time for a the make-up. We took Alex to Clinique so she could learn about washing her face and applying make-up so that it looked natural.

She looks so OLD!!! But Great!!! She even got a couple of surprises here!!

Next time for some more pampering. We headed for mani/pedi's. Me, Cousin Stephanie, and Alex

Emma so loves this butterfly chair.

After our mani/pedi's we ate at La Costa-Alex's favorite. She can't get enough of those beans. It was yummy as always. Then we took Emma to Lolly's and went to see the Sorcerer's Apprentice. It was great!!! We laughed and laughed and screamed and jumped. Ok I screamed and jumped. Alex still loves me even if I am embarrassing. It was a really fun evening to celebrate our sweet Alex.

The end to Alex's Birthday Celebration was family dinner on Sunday at Olive Garden and Pina Colada cake at our house. I hope it was everything she wanted. Love you babe!
