Happy Sweet Sixteen

My lovely daughter will be 16 next week. We celebrated her birthday with family and friends last night. A few of her friends came home with us for a sleepover, and then a trip to her favorite park today. Happy Birthday, Sissy ;)


Blowing out candles, with a little help ;)
Here she is with her cousin, opening a present from Granny & Papa...



...getting a glimpse of something shiny in the box...


...and realizing what it is! LOL



It was kind of cloudy today, but otherwise the weather was great.


You can see the rest of the pictures on flickr :)
