Pressing On

Today was the day to have our annual Tori and Bensha birthday celebration. Bensha is Laurance's daughter. Laurance is my great friend and has worked in my home the entire time that we have lived here. Every year we have a birthday party for the girls. They are 2 weeks apart! Usually this day takes place in October or November closer to their actual birthdays. However, this year, Tori was in America! Today was the earliest that we could get this party on the calendar! This morning I took Tori to Bensha's house where she spent several hours hanging out with Bensha and Laurance. Laurance had beautiful dresses made for them. They got ready and went for a walk around town. This included a stop at our corner convenient store. It was here that Laurance purchased them their Christmas cell phones and a box of cookies. They then went to visit Ben, Laurance's husband and he gave them some cold water to drink. Around 2PM they got on motorcycle taxis and came to our house for cake, presents and games! A fun time was had by all!
