Katelyn's 12th birthday

For Katelyn's 12th birthday, it was a week long celebration! Happy Birthday, Kates! We love you and we're so glad you are in our family.

The Beehives "heart attacked" our door to welcome Katelyn into the Young Women's program at church.

Since cousin Rinsley and Katelyn share close birthdays, we love having bday parties at Granda and Papa's house with them together. Rinsley turned 14 years old. Happy Birthday, Rins! Good luck at your ice skating competition in NYC next month!

And for the grand finale...we took a bunch of Katelyn's BFF's to NYPD Pizza for lunch, followed by a visit to the local gourmet cupcake shop (so fun), and then shopping at the Dollar Tree, followed by swimming in the Loar-Land Swimming Pool. It was a great party and Katelyn loved having her besties nearby all day long.
