Daddy's Girls

I'm 5 days late on her birthday post, but we had the best time celebrating our 15 year old!  How did she go from that baby to such a young woman so quickly??

We stayed at the camp those 1st 2 nights and did some deer and duck hunting We came back Saturday so that they could ride (plus Lil had to work) and also went to see a movie with Cara, Josie and Kelli. Monday we went to see Josh and Hailey‘s beautiful new house they just built. I wish I would’ve taken some pictures, but it’s absolutely gorgeous! Tuesday was a pretty lazy day until people came over for New Year’s Eve. Lillian had five friends over and they played games and hung out until after midnight. My car broke down right after we took Brynn home on New Year’s Day, so Wednesday and Thursday were spent at the house. We watched a lot of movies and they did a lot of painti...
