Happy Birthday, Emily

Our oldest and youngest together!!

We had a really special day this year for Emily's 19th birthday. We went out for breakfast at our favorite breakfast place in Santa Cruz, Alexander's Coffee!

Happy Birthday, Emily

In the evening we all went to Starbucks, per Emily's request! I have to say it was the first time we have ever taken our whole family to Starbucks ever! It was a really fun time. We met up with some friends and just hung out chatting!

Emily's best friend in Camiri, Betsy, came up to Santa Cruz to be with Emily for her birthday. It was really sweet of her to come. Betsy is now managing Coffee Mattix.
