Ahem.....that didn't work out the way I wanted to! :) I sort of forgot that the first picture you upload always has to be last, at least with our computer, and it would have looked weird to say, "Judge for yourselves on the pictures and photos I'll share with you above." Anyways, Tessa's birthday post continued! (And no, I'm not blond...:P)
Right off the bat, I'll start with six facts about Tessa.
Favorite food: Italian and Chinese
Favorite color: Blue
Favorite subject: Math
Favorite animal: Dog
Favorite season: Spring
Favorit sport: Ultimate Frisbee
In the summer Tessa enjoys gardening and taking pictures of the flowers in our yard.
She's a pretty gifted musician, and plays the Violin and Dobro as well as the Banjo
Tessa is a wonderful business partner! We sell our jewelry and various crafts at our concerts, and it's always fun to see what creative idea she's come up with next!
Tessa is definitely the early bird of the family, and how she does it ....well...ahem...let's just say I'm not a very good person to ask! Her alarm goes of promptly every morning, and because I am always to tired to climb off our loft bed and turn it off, she always has to do it, and once Tessa is up she is, (more or less,) wide awake! Believe me, I know....:P She is also the sleep walker of the family, (although I have also been found guilty before,) and because I share a room with her, I am the put-her-back-to-bed-er! She also delights me (NOT!!) by mumbling and acting out very unclear and abstract parts of her dreams in the middle of the night!
Tessa is pretty good at making people laugh, even without trying to, and is called a 'ham' by many of her friends! :) We did many plays when we were little. (Above)
When she was little, Tessa loved to pretend. We have many memories playing Little House on the Prairie together, and being that Tessa was the youngest of our foursome, she usually played Carrie, and a pretty cute Carrie at that!
Tessa is quite the crafty girl! =) She enjoys knitting, quilting, sewing, jewelery making, sketching, and card making. She has won ribbons for her quilting and knitting abilities, as well as various art projects. Recently she has picked up the hobby of drawing, and as we are taking an art class together she has come up with some remarkable sketches, especially of people.
I love you like crazy, Tessa! Happy 13th Birthday!
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. -Psalm 106:1

Happy birthday Tessa!! Wow - 13 years old! You are growing into a beautiful, sweet young lady! I have always appreciated how you and AnaLise are so mature and easy to talk to. And I loved seeing the old pictures - it shows how fast time really goes. I remember when I used to dress up like Laura! It was so much fun to see you a few weeks ago, and I hope it's not too long before we see you again! :-)
