K's 20th Birthday

K's birthday was on General Conference Saturday (it often takes place on conference weekend).  She drove up for the weekend.  She wanted to go out to eat for her birthday but it was kind of tricky to fit it in because of conference and C & S still had ballet.  So we decided to go between the afternoon session and Priesthood Session.  This was our only available time slot.  Here we are at yummy Cheesecake Factory.

 The Birthday Girl!

 

On Sunday we had K's celebration with the family including Tono and Glady's (L's aunt and uncle) from Virginia (they were here for conference).

Then it was time for present opening.  And everyone is anxiously waiting...

 But we had to get a picture first.

 And her big present was.... A camera!!!  She has been wanting this forever!

 Then it was time for the cake.  She requested a Fashion Minnie Mouse Cake and this is what we came up with.  I think it turned out pretty good.  Except all the birthday cakes seem to be getting more complicated little by little.

She requested the procession so here we come.

 We had to pause for her to take a picture.

 Yay! I just have to say we love this girl! She has been with us for 20 wonderful years.  She brings so much joy to our lives and we are so happy to see that she is doing well at taking care of herself.  She is beautiful, talented, and loving.  She is the best oldest child anyone could ask for.  Growing up is hard for kids and their parents but K is doing very well!

 Just playing.  K looks like Minnie anyways.

 The girls are always stealing my camera and taking random pictures like this one.
