Every year Lauren seems to have some kind of adventure involved in her birthday. From an ER visit from an almost broken arm to unexpected water balloon fights....seems there's always a little something that goes a tad crazy.
So here we are getting all settled in for a pretty, calm evening at a park to celebrate Lauren.
Besties having a ball. Clear skies and laughter...
An insane amount of pizza ordered and eaten...
Then. With birthday girl spirits (and a run in the middle of it)...a big thundery storm rolls in.
it gets super chilly cold...like, teeth shattering along with wet.
We huddle...
And LAUGH!
(This is my most favorite picture of the night!)
To the house all wet and cold we go. A bunch of girls piling on our big couch.
Presents.
A big sundae bar.
All the fixin's and sugar...
big and small bowls...
young and old eaters....
Sister love.
And one happy 14 year old.
Another memorable one, sweetheart!
