McKayla's Birthday

Today is my beautiful baby girl's 14th birthday! She is truly beautiful both inside and out!

Some things I love about McKayla:
She is patient.
She is kind to everyone.
She is a hard-worker.
She is self-motivated.
She is completely reliable.
She is the child everyone wants.
She is spunky!

It is amazing how good she still looks after 4 days camping at Oakcrest. She is shown here with one of her best friends - Dakota.

She even looks good after TWO soccer games in almost 100 degree heat. (Maybe the silver medal helps)

I feel very blessed to have such a talented, sweet, fun daughter!

The birthday celebration was fairly low-key since it was a Sunday and a Fast Sunday to boot. Also, she wants a big present for Christmas so asked that we combine her birthday and Christmas so as to ensure she gets what she wants. We did serve her requested dinner of chicken, stuffing, mashed potato casserole (or what would otherwise be Thanksgiving leftover casserole). And we had a Thin Mint ice cream cake from Dairy Queen.

We'll do cinnamon rolls for breakfast tomorrow and treats for her soccer team tomorrow night and probably treats for her SOAR team at some point. Maybe her birthday will end up being a birth week - she deserves it!
