Happy Birthday Rachel!

Today is Rachel's 17th Birthday! I can't even believe that we are the parents of a 17 year old. It seems like yesterday that she was playing with Barbies. Now, she drives, she texts, she works, she drinks coffee, oh and she has a tattoo (see photo of Tattoo - Day 2).

She woke up this morning, and Brian took her to her favorite Donut Shop and to Starbucks, for her other addiction.

This afternoon we will have one of her favorite lunches, spiral ham and au gratin potatoes (definately not my favorite) and I made her a cake, a pretty cute one if I do say so myself.

Tonight she is going with a couple of friends to go haunted housing! She is a freak for that stuff. They are going to the Haunted Field of Screams in Thornton and The Haunted Forest in Parker. After the haunted houses, they are going to see Paranormal Activies at the movie theatre. I can't imagine that she will be able to drive home after all of that scary stuff, I wouldn't be able to, I know that.

Happy Birthday Rachel, we love you and are really proud of you. Have a great night, be safe.
