My Eldest celebrated her 16th Birthday in Disneyland. We put our annual passes to use once more. Thanks to Mickey's gift of free admission on your birthday, my sweetie was given a gift card of $69 (cost of admission) since she had a valid annual pass. Her first birthday wish was to arrive upon opening. We missed it by a little (o.k. by about 45 min.). The older two quickly left the rest of us behind as they ran to Splash Mountain upon entering the park. The line was so short that they went on twice before the crowd arrived.
Her must have birthday gift was a long wished for Jack Skellington Sweatshirt. She also looked for a coffee mug with Snow White, but her favorite princess doesn't have a mug. In fact, she didn't find anything with Snow White. Not a trading pin, piggy bank (or should I say Snow White bank), mug... nothing. We concluded that Snow White must not be popular enough to have her own merchandise. OR, she is sooo popular that her merchandise is snatched up quicker than you can say, "Snow White".
We had a long tiring day, but it was full of fun, good food, a surprise visit from her grandparents late that night, plenty of wonderful phone calls from family wishing her a sweet 16, warm apple pie and her favorite... lemon bar cake.

Happy birthday!!! Sounds like she (and you) had a lot of fun. And 16 years old?! My baby is never going to be that old. :o)
Interesting that pins are making a comeback! I had a lot of them when I was little that I would get as presents from older relatives. Aren't they a '50's style?... the version when I was growing up in the '80's was the button pin.
Well Happy Birthday sabrina!
I'm glad you spent it at Disneyland. Everyone would love that birthday...16 WoW!
