Pearl's 13 Year Old Gallery

(July 27th, 2023)

One of my favorite posts coming at cha. The photo shoots are so fun. I believe I am caught up again since I did Daisy's on her birthday. So yes...Pearl's was out of order, but she is still just as cute a few months after her birthday as she was back in March. (I must say, it is super helpful that the girls are getting older and I don't have to do birthday shoots for everyone.) Oh, Pearl's 13 now. Did I mention that? Only teenagers left. And one lonely adult. Sorry June, you've moved on.

Pearl is a delight to have in our family. She is funny, smart, kind, and the best caboose a mom could ask for. She is my bud and I hope she still likes me in a couple years when it's just her and the padres in the house. Meanwhile, we had a blast taking her pictures. Take a gander.

We were out at a park in the canyon. There were literally hundreds of grasshoppers around. Pearl kept stopping to catch them and I kept having to tell her to put them down and hold still for a photo. She caught several while we were there. And at one point, she walked down a path and dozens of hoppers were jumping out of her path. It was sort of magical...if you like grasshoppers.

On our way back home, we stopped to get a treat. Stephanie introduced me to the Lemon Berry Cream Slush at Sonic. It isn't on the menu, but they'll make it for you and it's super delicious. Try it sometime.
