Ashlee's 12

Our little girl turned 12 today!  How and when did this happen?  We decided to keep things low key this year.  No party.  Ashlee got to pick where she wanted to go to dinner.  She chose Red Robin followed by Cold Stone Ice Cream.  She also got a new hairstyle and some money to spend on a future family vacation.

Today Ashlee was  awarded with several awards at an awards assembly at school.  She received a Life Skills Award for being efficient.  Her teachers said that she always" goes the extra mile" and goes over and beyond what is required of her.  She received an awards certificate and an engraved key chain for her participation on the school volleyball team, and she received a certificate for having a 4.0GPA,which is hard to do at our school.   Our school has different grade cut offs than most schools.  We basically do not have minus grades.  So technically a B- at a regular school is a C+ at ours.

Ashlee's new hairstyle.  She got bangs and some layers.
