Sweet 16

On August 17th, Elizabeth turned 16. The Sunday prior to her birthday we rented a paddleboard and pontoon boat because the boys were going to be in school on her actual birthday, and it was important for her to have all six of us together to celebrate her. 

On her actual birthday, my mom came into town, and we took her shopping in a mountain town two hours from our house. We then picked up the boys and they came with us to play Top Golf and grab Dairy Queen ice cream which was Elizabeth's request in place of a birthday cake.
