HAPPY 13TH B-DAY LAUREN!

WOW! Where does the time go? I can't believe Lauren is 13. We are fortunate-knock on wood-to have such a great daughter with very little drama. Lauren had a b-day party with all the girls in her Beehive class from church. They made bead bracelets, ate dinner, played 'Bigger & Better", ate cake & danced. For the game "Bigger & Better', they were put in teams & sent out in the neighborhood with a penny. They were told to go to 10-15 houses & see what they could trade their penny for. Some of the items they received were stereos, a card table, a doll from Christmas Story with the man & the leg lamp...I think you get the idea. It was a blast to have 12 girls around but even better when they went home. What was I thinking?? I'm so glad I didn't act like that when I was 13...hehe! I am so proud of the amazing young woman Lauren has become.
