Is This Possible?!?!?! SEVENTEEN!!

Our beautiful baby girl is 17 years old!  Where did the time go.  She has been a joy and a ray of sunshine in our family.  She is always striving to be the best and to bring out the best in others.  She has a solid testimony of what she believes in. She has a deep love for her Heavenly Father and for Jesus Christ.  She loves her family.  She has her struggles, but turns to prayer, scripture study, friends and family for help in those struggles. She is an example to everyone, including her parents. She is a very special spirit that we have been blessed beyond what we deserve to have her as part of our family.  She is still a daddy's girl and I think always will be. She is turning into a beautiful lady. The world became better the day she entered it and continues to grow better as she grows and matures.  We love you sweetie!

Lea and Cato. Cato likes to give his own toys away for Christmas and birthday presents.  Very loving little guy.  Lea received several cars and a few other little toys.

Lea LOVES Dairy Queen's Strawberry Cheesequake Blizzards.  She found out that they have strawberry cheesequake blizzard cakes - that's what she wanted! So we had them put the words and edging in the same color green as her new lime green chair!!
