My Baby is 18!!!

"A" was led into the kitchen with her eyes closed....and there she saw this cake....

 

She read her birthday card, admired the fine rendition of a red car with the "Grease" logo on top and with every name of the main characters written on the side.
 

She discovered tickets for the musical "Grease" in the pretty pink box/purse.  She was so surprised and felt so spoiled.  It was all a bit over the top for her.
 Thanks to everyone in the family who made this all come together to give this lovely young lady a most memorable and cherished "18th" birthday!  Phone calls from two of her brothers who are out of town, another brother came by and Jeff came back from Cold Lake just to spend the evening with her and then left again the next morning.
 Happy Birthday "A".  I hope it was as special as you are, though I know it can't even come close!  You are the best!!

Lilo and Stitch, our family pets, are such good buddies. 
They are treasured pets, for sure.

Reunited and We're So Excited.............





Sorry this video is so jumpy but we had to share our joy at meeting T at the airport after two years serving a mission for our church.  Sooooooo glad and thankful to have him home!!  Happy Thanksgiving!

There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: one is roots, the other is wings.
