hIpPy pAPy BthdThdy!

See my Gorgeous Girls? They're 16 now! We did the learner's permit thing, the birthday cake thing, and the present thing. They're bummed because we did have school yesterday, but with this being Holy Week, so many church services (that I will be working for), and Anna having Friday and Monday off, I figured we'd end up with too much time off to take yet another day off. They didn't do much anyway.


L. got an aquamarine necklace and diamond (gasp) earrings.

B. got an amethyst necklace and some diamond (gasp) earrings.

A. keeps reminding me that she's only 3 years away from being 16. I told her that by that time, we'd be so broke from sending her sisters to college that we'd buy her jewelry at the Dollar Store.
