Eleven is Heaven, for you get to go...
...to dinner with those who love you just so!
Grandma and Grandpa, Mama and Dad...
A birthday full of memories so rad!
For my 11th birthday, my parents took me out to dinner with my grandparents. We went to the Hungry Hunter Restaurant and I thought I was soooo cool. With just the five of us, we dressed up and enjoyed a night on the town. I declared that night that I would no longer remove the potato from the skins. I was eleven now so I would start eating the skin of the baked potato - that is, if slathered in tons of butter, salt and pepper. My grandparents and parents gave me lots of attention, making it a very special day. I remember it well...and that's saying something.

It was such a special occasion that when my oldest daughter turned eleven, I wanted to start up the tradition with her parents and grandparents. So we did, and it's continued on to child #5!

I hope these experiences will be fond memories for my children, too. Turning eleven - a special day in our family!
