Karaoke while waiting for all of the guests to arrive.

Pizza and cake

Dilara, Catherine, Raine, Mya, Hailey, Mackenzie

Mya made and decorated Raine’s cake

The real party started when we arrived at Six Flags.

The Texas Giant (Raine was holding onto her glasses)

Judge Roy Scream

The Texas Sky Screamer

These girls rode rides until they dropped!

Raine’s birthday wasn’t spent quite as she would have liked — my former coworker, Stephen Shaw, invited us to the TCU vs SMU football game and we couldn’t pass up the offer.

After the game we had cake and presents.

The kids didn’t have school on Monday so Raine and I went shopping at the Galleria (after making them get flu shots at DJ’s office).

We had lunch at the super-fancy Grand Lux Cafe.
