Sweet 16

For my birthday this year, my parents decided to get creative and they bought me a gift to represent every year of my life. :)

0-1: I loved watching movies, and my favorites were Babe and Black Beauty.

1-2: When Eddie came home from the hospital, I tried to give him a drink by pouring water on his face.

2-3: The first time I pooped in the toilet, I ran out of the bathroom saying "I made an L!"

3-4: I loved playing with figurines and having them interact with each other.

4-5: I was so into princesses. (And I still am! :) )

5-6: My little sister was born and I loved helping out.

6-7: I was taking a road trip with my grandparents, and out of the blue, I yelled "I am SO freaking bored!"

7-8: I got really into jumping rope, and I even joined a club at the YMCA.

8-9: I got baptized.

9-10: We have a really cute picture of all of us kids with oranges in our mouths.

10-11: We went to DisneyLand for the first time.

11-12: My mom taught Spanish to my 6th grade class.

12-13: I got into basketball and played for my middle school team.

13-14: My parents gave this to me because I won a lot of awards at my eighth grade graduation.

14-15: I starting singing and really began to love it.

15-16: I got my license and started driving.

For my sixteenth birthday party, I decided to do March Madness Sweet 16. I thought it was so clever, and I was so excited to have it. We were going to play games and have a championship at the end. Turns out, Makelle was planning a surprise party for me. It was so sweet and I was completely surprised! All of my friends were there, and I had so much fun. Makelle even put together a game to test how well everyone knew me. I LOVED it! Makelle is such a sweetheart. So, I didn't end up having my March Madness party, but this was so much better! What a great way to spend my sixteenth birthday! :)
