10 Years of Drama

The 5th of December was a very special day. Drama turned 10 years old!
We spent the weekend in Bristol, near where the girls live. This was in anticipation of attending a birthday party. But that plan was altered a little bit when Drama said she wanted a Slumber Party for her birthday. So, not really a party format that we could attend.
Instead, we got to see her twice that weekend--once on her actual birthday Friday night and again on Sunday.

Paulster and I met the girls, their mom and one of Drama's friends for dinner at Pizza Express.

She got a pink camera for her birthday, so we'll be editing it at every chance...to make sure the least flattering images don't survive! ;)

Here's a picture of the birthday girl and her proud papa at Pizza Express.

Saturday was our own day. So we visited the new shopping centre in Bristol, which is a cool indoor/outdoor thing. The shops, like Next, Harvey Nichols, and Debenhams are smaller versions of the London stores.
Here are some holiday decorations outside the shopping centre...very Christmassy.

Saturday night, we caught up with a friend who lives in town. He's the one we can depend on every time we're there to have dinner and find out how his life's progressed since the last time we saw him. He always gives us plenty of things to discuss over dinner/drinks!

On Sunday, we met the girls and their mom for Sunday lunch. Even though it was cold, the girls enjoyed the swings and slides at the restaurant's playground. The looks on their faces in this shot is pure joy...and it makes me smile.

Happy Birthday, Drama Girl!
