She's a Party Girl!

This weekend, it was Zoe that had the crazy busy social calendar: 2 Birthday Parties, a Birthday lunch, and "Ramsey Day".

The highlight from my view, was DEFINITELY the ice-skating party on Friday night. I haven't laughed that hard in a looooooooooooooooong time. I'll let the pictures do the majority of the talking, but I just have to say how proud I was of her. No matter how many times, or how hard Zoe fell, she got up with a smile (all but one time). She didn't let fear or uncertainty lead her. She just went for it. She started off slow...holding on to the side, but after one trip around and a few "pointers" from mom, she was gliding along in no time. She taught me a lot that night. Her confidence and excitement to learn encouraged me to stretch myself a little at times, too! The pay off's worth it!
