Hanna's Sweet Sixteen

Driver's of the world: Beware! Hanna has a license and a car!

We were so lucky to have part of Hanna's day long birthday celebration at our house. As you can see from the picture above, it was a day fit for a "princess."

Linda had a beautiful birthday cake made for Hanna. I love the picture on her cake! It's always been one of my favorites. I can't believe she's not our "little girl" anymore!!!!!!

Jessica and Samantha had a blast helping me decorate the dining room with the decorations Hanna brought over the week before. Samantha had the idea to hang the beads from the light fixture, then she tied them together in the middle. I was very impressed.

I am not looking forward to this day in just a few short years! I will lock them in their rooms, and they will NOT get a car!

Jessica and Samantha gave Hanna special gifts they picked out and wrapped themselves. They love Hanna so much! She's a "rock star" to them.

Linda had to show Samantha the pictures on her camera. Samantha is crazy about cameras and taking pictures. She just might become a photographer one day, or a hairstylist, or an interior designer....

Hanna's friends did not want me to take their picture because it was a pool party and they weren't wearing make up... teenagers! Just wait till you actually need the make up!

I was trying to get a nice mother-daughter picture...but Jessica could not be left out.

Jessica is a "Hanna hog." She always wants her all to herself!

And now a blast from the past...

I am not sure what Linda is showing Jes but Linda really likes it. I have always loved this picture.

But I love this one more.

By the way where is my brother during these parties!
