Lily is 15!

Happy Birthday Lily! Katharine saw the candles lit and jumped up to blow them out. 

Like a good older sibling, Lily didn't mind sharing the spotlight with her little sister.

One two three blow!

Daniel played her the Happy Birthday song a few times - when we sang to her, and then again when my mom came and we sang again...

Glad that music practice is getting put to good use! Good job Daniel

I made some fruit smoothies with whipped cream instead of cake. 

We didn't put candles in those but we did sing, and we sang again when my mom came by. My mom got her some great gifts, I was home with her when my mom came by, and the rest of the kids were on a neighborhood walk about, so we had more cookies for that. Sugar sugar everywhere. I think Lily's favorite part of the day was talking to a friend she met at FSY. Wayne took Lily out yesterday to a book store, so she liked that. I am getting increasingly lazy and thus, like I did at Christmas, I resorted to cash again. 

I did fold it into a heart though, if that gets me any thoughtfulness points? Corey is taking her out to breakfast tomorrow. Actually I had a Disney Lego set of a Disney Castle and I told her she could chose between that or cash. I'm ok that she chose the cash. Little kids still choose legos. Peter made a space ship today - 

And Owen made a big pirate ship! They both worked hard. I told Owen he's turning into a real lego master.

I saw today that BYU currently has a lego exhibit, so we've got to take the kids to that soon! It looks really cool. Maybe after the wedding. Got home from church today - Had the kids try on outfits, trying to figure out their clothes... we're not done with it, but K liked one of her two options. She wore this to church today - 

K watching VeggieTales Jonah with Daniel after church. Such a pretty little girl! Daniel is a little Ethan, and K is a pretty good Lily look alike. Happy Birthday Lily, we hope it was a good day! One more year and she'll be driving, crazy. These kids just keep growing up so fast.
