Goodbye Strawberry, Hello Swift

We officially have another teen in our home...yikes 3 at a time.  You can say we have many emotional ups and downs in our home!  Our sweet baby Jane has now entered the teen years.  So sad.  Most of you remember Jane's obsession with Strawberry Shortcake.  Starting at about age 4 her life revolved around her and her sweet smelling gang.  Birthdays, Christmas gifts and Halloween costumes always revolved around that freckle faced doll.  Now that she is 13 Strawberry Shortcake  has been put away for safe keeping and a real life girl has taken her place.  Jane's side of the room is now filled with pictures, Cd's, perfumes, bags, necklaces and t-shirt's of Taylor Swift.  She had the chance to go to her concert this past summer and since then it has been all about her.  For her 13th (Taylor's favorite #) Jane decided to have a Taylor Swift themed party.  She and her friends....the 13 of them watched the concert on DVD, jumped on the trampoline and just had a good time.  
she still loved her at 11 years old:(

Jane really wanted a cake shaped like a guitar so while I was the soccer mom Nate stayed home all day working on this fabulous cake...... I told him he should quit his day job:)

I found these perfect cupcake toppers on Etsy..they were a hit!

Jane is lucky to have such a great group of friends....such thoughtful cards and gifts.  They all know Jane so well.
On her actual birthday we had a fun girls day shopping with Grandma Bluth
It will be interesting to see what comes next....
