Driver Alert!!

Happy Sweet Sixteen Mattie!You've been waiting for this day to drive by yourself for what seems like forever.  You may recall that every time you begged to just drive up the street before your birthday, I said no because I needed you to have your driver's license and didn't want any delays!  On your birthday, you took your brother to practice, went to the grocery store and of course took a friend to get ice cream.  



You're not and have never been a morning person.  :)

Ten years apart.

Nurturer by nature.



 Including Josh via FaceTime to sing Happy Birthday.


Red Rocks in the Summer


 At sixteen, you have your own room, shared with no one.  You've enjoyed making it your own!  




You are multi-talented.  Sometimes too many things to fit into your schedule.  




Winter Formal freshman year.


As much as you are a hugger, it's only when you want it to be and it is so much fun for everyone to hug you when you don't want it!
 Happy birthday Mathilda Grace!  We sure are glad you were born.  Drive safely!!
You're a great big sister.  You do such a nice job of playing and teaching and bossing too.
