It’s Gabbie’s birthday today and she is 19. I obviously can’t believe she is so grown up and that she’s not even at home for her birthday, being that she’s in school across the country! Today she is going to an Olivia Rodrigo concert in Boston! Here’s a look back at her amazing year.
April 2023 was a big month – Gabbie turned 18 and decided to commit to UMass!
May was even more exciting with her last dance recital, her last school dance show, and graduation. At the end of the month, Gabbie went to NJ to see Taylor Swift.
In June, we went to Oregon and California. After the trip, Gabbie worked as a camp counselor.
July 4th
In August, Gabbie got her wisdom teeth out and then we go her ready to head off to school. But first, we saw Billy Joel in concert and we celebrated Simon’s bar mitzvah!
We moved Gabbie into college at the end of August.
And she started classes.
In October, Gabbie came home for a weekend, and then we met her in NJ for a weekend. In November, we met in NJ again for Thanksgiving and we drove her back to campus.
In December, Gabbie came home for winter break. We headed to Florida!
From FL, Gabbie went to a youth group meet up in NY. Then she was home for all of January. Two of her college friends came to visit and we showed them a bit of KC.
We watched football and had dog cuddles and then it was back to school for second semester.
In March, Gabbie was home for spring break and for Purim. And now it’s April and she is 19!
Happy Birthday Gabbie!
