16th Birthday celebrations!

Rhiannon had a VERY HAPPY sixteenth birthday!  It was on Memorial Day this year and we had a ton of fun stretching it out for a few days, too.

Highlights:

--Bishop Washburn getting the whole ward to sing "Happy Birthday" to Rhiannon at the ward Memorial Day breakfast

--Swimming with friends

--an envelope F-U-L-L of notes, cards, and special letters from family and friends to commemorate her birthday.  Jason's letter made both me and Rhiannon cry.

--Cinnamon cake

--Friends "stealing her" to go get ice cream together in the evening.  She had no idea they were coming!

--Dating emergency kit funnies (pepper spray, anti-gas pills, etc)

--A tremendously successful birthday party with friends a few days later.  She had 12 guests and they swam, ate, laughed, and played games together.  Guests were Nathan, Tamara, Nik, Thomas, JenAi, Ethan, Jacob, Kevin, Brisa, Sydney, Izzy, and Emily.

--Thoughtful gifts

--Perfect first "group date" with Nik Duque, Wes Johnson, and Kalie Hedman (they went jeeping in Wes's car and got donuts afterwards).  She said it was a BLAST!!!

Here are pictures for proof!  Happy 16th to our lovely Rhiannon!  We love you!!!

  

  

  

  

  


A fantastic group of teenagers.  They're welcome over here any time!


Playing Werewolves of Miller's Hollow--probably the highlight of the night!  They were here til 10:30 or 11 playing that.

First Date fun!

Sweet 16!!!!!




Tomorrow is the big day!  We are so excited to help Rhiannon celebrate this milestone birthday.  We have a few things up our sleeves (sorry, no car, haha!) that we know she'll love and enjoy!
This little baby's birth was scary, too early, and 100% crazy, but since that fateful day she has brought us nothing but happiness and peace.  So grateful she is a part of our family!  So excited for what awaits!
