[Mollie woke up at 0830 - I cooked breakfast (blueberry pancakes, bacon) and we watched a movie (“Mr. Holland’s Opus”) - at 1230, we went to Giant to pick up cupcakes and then went to Ghengis Grill to celebrate Mollie’s Halfy Birthday - six of her friends were able to attend and everyone had fun with the Mongolian stir fry meal, Sprite and cupcakes (Mollie even got a brownie with ice cream) - Mollie also got some nice presents - it seemed like everyone had a great time - after their parents came to get her friends (1500), Mollie and I drove to Huntley Meadows for a walk - we explored a new off-shoot trail and saw a fox - we arrived home at 1600 - Nicky came to pick up Mollie at 1800]
