I remember when my girlfriend turned 13, her parents took me and her to Cloud Nine, and I literally and figuratively felt like I was on Cloud Nine. So I figured this would be perfect for my princess. But I expanded it a bit. We were originally going to have four of her best girlfriends (and subsequently these are the same girlfriends that are leaving her school, rather devastating for both her and me to be sure).
