My Birthday "Party"

I would like to extend a sincere apology to all blog readers of mine. I have been horribly slack in updating my blog, and will most certainly be more consistent in the future.

We celebrated my birthday weekend before last, and I'm finally getting around to posting pictures.:-P

We decided by unanimous decision to eat lunch at Longhorns. Knowing that I wanted to stop by Joann's on the way home, Mama and Dad decided to go ahead and give me one of my presents

I let Natalie help me unwrap the box.

Is it just me or is she too cute?:-)

A gift certificate to Joann's! Hooray!

The sisters three.

Mama and Dad.

Me and my cupcakes. Mama did a lovely job decorating them.

Aren't they lovely. They tasted good, too!

All of us girls with Mama. Emily isn't looking straight, but I love Natalie's face.

Mama and I. I think that now, as I am growing older, I am slowly beginning to look more like Mama. For a long time I've had people tell me that I looked like dad. Well, I'll always have his nose.......

The sisters three with Natalie. (quick note: for many years, our dream was to have our own band. It only made sense that being sisters, we would call it "The Sisters Three". When Natalie came, we just threw her name in at the end.:-) Unless she decides to be our lead singer, then we'll change it to Natalie and The Sisters Three. If Emily does lead, It'll be Emily and The Sisters Three. And if Bekah does lead........:-))

Mama, Me and Dad.

Had to include this one. :-)

Me and my Daddy-O

And of course, presents!:-)

This one was from Natalie.

Switchfoot's Beautiful Letdown!

From Emily.....

Chocolate!

Oh Bekah, you shouldn't have.....I didn't mean that!

Listen, if you have to buy me bubblegum, get the right brand! (lol)

Okay, what is it.

Jesus Freaks!

This'll be good.

And, drum roll please.....
The Present.






What could it be.....





No way! Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Version 11!

Wow!

For the rest of the day we watched movies and played soccer. All in all, I had a very enjoyable day!

On my Birthday.....

Today Mama, Rebekah, Emily and Natalie took me out to lunch to celebrate my 16th. Birthday.

I picked T.G.I Fridays since we hadn't been there in a while. And no, we did not have the waiters come and sing happy birthday to me. :-) Dad did that to me on my 10Th birthday, and, well......never mind. The desert was good, though.:-)

Here are a couple of photos mama took......

I have no idea what I'm laughing at, but whatever it was, it was funny.:-)

Myself, Emily and Rebekah.

Mama and I.

Afterwards we went shopping at J.C. Penney's. Believe it or not, they were having a sale!:-)

I had specially requested that we watch Sense and Sensibility on my birthday, so when we got home, that is what we did.:-) It is one of my very favorite movies! Altogether, I had a very enjoyable birthday!:-)

Pictures of Kolo and Bekah

Here are some pictures my mama took the other day of my sister Rebekah and our dog Kolo. She did such a fantastic job!

This is my favorite. It looks like Kolo is laughing!:-)

A close-up of Kolo. She is such a wonderful dog!

Reading to Kolo.

The Girls.

We have a lot of people remark on the number of girls in our family. (although, honestly, I don't think that four girls should be considered a lot) Even our dog is a girl! Dad is clearly outnumbered.:-)

The one picture I took. Kolo is doing her favorite thing. Having her tummy rubbed. :-)


Well, that's all for now, folks!
