Amelia celebrated her 9th birthday with 9 friends at the show Fata Morgana. It is a Cirque Solei based show with aerialists, stunts, dancing and thrills. We are fortunate to have the casinos in Biloxi which bring some really amazing shows and talent to our coast.
The stage manager found out it was Amelia's birthday and placed the girls in box seats in the very front row! All the girls squealed with delight and disbelief. The seat were awesome and the performers were swinging over the top of us!
Birthday girl.
Cupcakes after the show.
Big girl...big heart. I love this girl so much and she is growing up to be such a wonderful little being. As we talked about her party she said, "Mom, I don't think I want any presents this year but I really want to bring things to the Humane Society again." So Amelia asked her friends to bring dog/cat food and supplies to her party instead of birthday presents. When we went to donate the items, we brought Sadie and Wrigley, whom we adopted after Amelia donated items for her last birthday. The staff were so thankful to Amelia and very excited to see Sadie and Wrigley again. The staff took more pictures than I did! I also brought the dogs to remind myself not to come home with any more pets in case I had a moment of weakness. Luke told me that day in true Luke fashion, "Mom, I want to bring gifts for the animals, but I REALLY want presents for me for my birthday this year; so maybe next year I will give it to the animals." No problem, buddy.
