For Rachel's b-day, which is tomorrow, she wanted to get her ears pierced. BUT, she didn't want to do it alone. So she asked her friend Katie, who wanted to get her ears pierced too but hadn't yet, to go with her. The kids had last Friday off of school so we loaded up the van and headed to Mankato to Exclusively Diamonds. I love this place! The ladies there are so professional and fun and super with kids. ALL the girls got to wear tiara's and they got to try on a $28,000 ring!! Thats right, $28,000!!!!! Who buys this stuff???!!! Katie went first and did fantastic-she just grinned from ear to ear and no tears! Rachel on the other hand was a bit caught off guard and nervously smiled after the piercing and then the flood gates opened! Oh boy....not quite the memory I thought we'd be making. Oh well....she was still a trooper and once she settled down and looked at her pretty ears she was happy and glad that it was done. After that we went to Dino's pizzeria for Rachel's b-day meal. It was fabulous! It's one of our favorite restaurants to go to. They are super family-friendly, the kids get to draw on the tables and get to play with their own plate of pizza dough. The waitress surprised Rachel with a huge ice cream sundae that had a firecracker lit on top of it. It was pretty spectacular as she brought it out to Rachel! When we got home Brian finished off the night by taking the kids to the football game. It was quite the day!
