On Sunday, November 22, 2015 Calli turned 18!!!
She celebrated all weekend long!
On Thursday Jake, Jadyn, Tyson and Lacey took her to opening night of Mockingjay.
On Friday, she went snowboarding with Brodey, Hannah and Lauren
Due to her asking for snowboard stuff and her going before her birthday she opened her presents Thursday night at midnight after the movie.
Snowboarding Gloves
Googles
and Bindings
Getting her bindings on her board and all ready to go.
She also got a candle from Bath and Body Works (She is a candle hoarder lately, she loves them)
On Saturday, we woke up bright and early and drove to Provo and back for the BYU game.
No better way to celebrate than with cousins.
Cousins bundled and huddled keeping warm.
The sun was shining for the first half and kept us quite warm but as soon as it went behind the bleachers and we were in the shade it was chilly.
BYU won so we headed to the Victory bell.
Calli, Sadie, Gentry and Ashlyn ringing the bell.
Picture with Cosmo
and meeting Francis Bernard.
Sunday, her actual birthday was also Lyman and Marilee's welcome home so she celebrated with cake and family at the luncheon. Overall I think she had great birthday.
18 years ago today this amazing young woman made me a mom for the first time. She has been an absolute joy the 6,570 days she has been in our lives. She is the most adventurous, caring, kind, athletic, spiritual, hilarious, determined, smart and thrill-seeking girl I know. She is such an example to me in living the gospel. She gave up an opportunity to play soccer at a College in Colorado because of her dream to serve a mission. (I miss her already just thinking about it) She is such a good kid and has made raising a teenager actually fun. She is one my best friends and I'm so blessed to have her in my life. Happy Birthday Calli. We love you!
