SURPRISE SWEET 16!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!






Yes, this beauty is finally 16! She has waited for this day since...she was 9!She can date now, and has the next month...pretty much filled..we are into April for date requests! We decided to surprise her and her buddy or BFF (I thought that stood for Beef, but apparently it means "best friend forever")...Taylor, who also turned 16! We had their license blown-up...which I am sure any far-sighted police officer can appreciate! It was a great party! Todd was on the grill with one of his young men, Timmy. Brett ran wild in the nearby sandtrap at the golf course with some of his pals. Adrien ate and jumped in the 50 degree something swimming pool with his pals to earn the "polar bear" badge...Vanessa had fun. I love having teenagers. The boy, Taylor, will be Vanessa's first date on Saturday. I love Vanessa and her sassiness. I am pleased that she is so close to the Lord and church. She has been a joy to raise and has taught me more than I could possibly teach her. She is an awesome legacy! We love you, Pookie!
