HAPPY 16th BIRTHDAY BETHANY! I'm soooo sorry I didn't get this up earlier. I had a really long, busy day and I just couldn't get to the computer. :( I'm sorry!! :( Oh, I didn't have many pictures to pick from - I need to get some of you when you were younger. :) You were too cute! We hope you had a very special 16th birthday - did you get your drivers license?? I'm sure your mom is ready for you to drive! :) We love you and thanks for being such a sweet young lady. You're always such a big help when we come to visit - Thanks!! :) All our love, Chris, Michelle and Allie

Allie playing with her little dish set she got for her b-day (thanks g-mom and g-dad A.). She loves this set and plays with it almost everyday. As you can see, she has spilled her "tea" (water) on the carpet... it's no fun having a tea party without the tea! :-} Allie is saying "cheese" in this pic - she has a hard time saying cheese and keeping her eyes open at the same time. Check out the next few pics... you'll see what I mean! :)

Allie with her buddy Garrett.
All clean! :>)
Time for bed!

Happy Birthday dad! We love you - Thanks for being such a special dad! I wish I had some pics of all the little projects I always helped you do... crawling under the house on Boteler Rd. to run a line for the dishwasher, or the time I helped you take the toilet apart after someone (don't know who) flushed part of the TP holder -- FUN!!
:-{ We all loved playing "throw the kids on the shed roof"...so many great memories! :) Hope you have a great day and get home early from work - enjoy your birthday dinner! :)
Lots of love from your favorite daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter, Michelle, Chris and Allie

Allie with Uncle Brian last summer. This pic. was taken last year when Chris was in Iraq. Allie wasn't much for men when she was younger, except for her Uncle Brian. I guess she knew it was her daddy's brother. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIAN!! I'm sure it's going to be a great b-day since Bethany is there and you have your new little boy to help you celebrate! :) We love you and I'm so glad to have you as part of my family! Looking forward to seeing you (and your family) over Christmas! Being with all the family is one of our highlights of the year! :)

Much love,

Summer Fun!

Mixing water and sand... yummy!
We think it funny how Allie loves to play in the dirt (I should say sand - we really don't have dirt). Such a little tomboy - but then, she loves her dollies too!
