Happy Birthday Paige!



























































Yesterday was Paige's 15th Birthday. We took her out to eat to a Lebanese Restaurant for some awesome kebobs, pitas & humus. (She's into eating healthy). And then Courtney and I took her shopping in Old Town Pasadena, going out for coffee and gourmet cupcakes, shopping for clothes & make up and just hanging out-  spending some "girl time" together. We had lots of fun!  

We can't believe that we've had her for 15 years! She and I spent a few hours the night before her birthday sorting through old photos so we can make a photo album for her. It was great remembering all the milestones and special moments - her birth (the day before the big Northridge Earthquake), adding two new sisters by the time she was 4, days at the beach, camping trips, first perm, ballet lessons, swim competitions, visits to Michigan to see family, canoeing, birthday parties and parades.

She's growing up to be a really cool girl. She has loads of creativity and is interested in everything!  She loves to cook and bake and decorate cakes, she's plays drums in the youth band at church, into archery, drawing, sewing, jewelry making clothes, designing and drawing fashion and more!

She is a great kid - she serves at the church and is ready to help in any way she can. She babysits, helps me make meals for new mommies, will help with hospitality and dinner parties and children's parties.

She's fun to be around, has a sweet personality and good sense of humor. 

We enjoy what she brings to the family!

Thanks, Paige for 15 great years! We Love You!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
