Happy 16th Birthday, Sissy!

Dear Gage and Gabe,

Sissy turned "Sweet 16" on December 3rd and we had a little dinner for her that following weekend. She invited five of her friends over for a late lunch. We made her favorite meal: Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Orzo Pasta. We had green beans, salad and rolls along with the pasta and cake pops and ice cream for dessert. After we ate, we watched Sissy open her presents. We wrapped up a "gag" gift of plastic bracelets and had her open those first. The look on her face when she opened them was priceless! Of course, we gave her her real present after that: a pair of diamond earrings. She seemed to like those a tad better than the plastic bracelets!

Blowing out her candle!

After completing the standard birthday party agenda, everyone took turns playing Mario Kart on the Wii. Gage, you thought this was the best part! You loved watching all the kids race the cars and motorcycles. We had a great time celebrating Sissy's Sweet 16!

I love you all,
Mommy
