Cherisse's 13 Birthday

Ryan and I got Cherisse a blue I-pod Shuffle (that was on sale for $20) A little bell that had a butterfly on it, and a small black purse, big enough for the bell to fit in.
It took us about 30 minutes to wrap it....
Here are the pictures of Cherisse opening it:

It looks like its going to be something big....


I threw some shoes and some shirts in there to fill up the box

I told her to open this box first. Yes, that IS covered in duct tape

Duct tape is now off, time to open this box.....

This is what was found in duct tape covered box....time to unwrap it

Yay the bell and the purse! (bad picture you can't see the purse)

Now for present number 2


Hey look another box..!



more wrapping paper inside box...

Cherisse at this point says "Another box!?"


You can't tell in this picture, but its a small box inside the box. Its a ring box that we stuffed in



Ta Da! There's her I-pod shuffle and a little Happy Birthday note from me and Ryan.

The unwrapping portion of this long journey took much less time compared to the wrapping portion. Although I'm sure Cherisse didn't see it that way!

That night we also went to Chuck-a-rama for Cherisse's birthday.

February 28th, 2009 Cherisse turned 13 years old!!!!!!!!
I wasn't home that day I had long ago planned a trip to Idaho and Cherisse had told me she didn't mind as long as she got her present before her birthday. What a champ.
For her birthday she kept everyone busy. They went out to watch a movie, then out to dinner, then they went ice skating. Boy she really didn't want any cake or any singing going on!

Cherisse is so cute, I can't believe she's 13!
Happy Birthday!
