She's 16!

Happy Sweet Sixteen Allyssa!

We can't believe she is already sixteen. Where has the time gone? Lyssa has become an incredibly, amazing young women and we are so proud of her.

Lyssa's statistics...
She has a beautiful voice
Loves to cook
Loves reeses peanut butter cups
Is taking drivers ed
Can't wait to date
Loves to laugh
Favorite color is lime green
She is lifeguard certified
She has a wonderful testimony of the gospel
Has a heart of gold.

I have to say Lyss is always concerned for others. When I took her shopping for a new birthday outfit she would not pick anything because she was worried it was too much. How many teenagers think about that? I know I didn't when I was her age. So sweet!

Happy, Happy 16th Birthday!
We Love You

Outside of the house

Well the house is done and as most of you know we are moved in. I have not posted any finished pictures so I am going to post one a few at a time. Today it is the outside of our house. I love it and I am looking forward to starting a yard. We are going to have a circular driveway and hopefully a few trees to block the sun in the afternoon.
Summer will be a very busy time!

Soon to be 16!

This soon to be 16 yr old had a friend birthday party this weekend.

Food, games and giggles kept our house loud. Lyssa has great friends! Becca from Preston came all the way down for a visit and everyone of these cute girls gave her the cutest presents. They ended the night by going to a stake dance to dance with the boys of course. What am I going to do when the dating starts in ummm...

5 days!

Erin's new hair cut

This is the last pic of Erin with her hair long.

Her hair was just barely long enough to donate.

I must confess this is a day her and I have been waiting for. We both like her hair short, no more tangles and ponytails. Thanks Linsay it looks great.

She's so cute!
