A Birthday Gift!

For Mia's 10th birthday, Camden and Bailey chipped in together to take her to get her ears pierced. She was so excited and yet at the same time - SO NERVOUS! She wanted to get them pierced, but was worried of the potential pain in doing so. We all drove to a mall in Regensburg after Camden's Soccer Game last weekend. They have a store there that pierces ears, and she had the support of the entire family. I'm glad she is only 10 and not 13 or she probably would have been quite embarrassed to have such a crowd there supporting her. It was funny because after the lady put the earrings in, Mia thought that she had only done the holes and not the earrings at the same time. She was quite relieved to find out that she was done with the entire process. A great Birthday gift!

So exciting!!! A perfect Birthday Gift!!!

Yes - quite a crowd to support and just a little (or maybe a lot :-)) embarrassing that I was snapping pictures , but everyone was a good sport :-))

They handed her a Teddy Bear to squeeze (smart idea :-))
