Taylor

Taylor turned twelve this past Saturday and wanted a swim party.  So she invited a few friends over.  We hate hotdogs, chips, jello pretzle salad, watermelon and lemonaide.  After we ate and they jumped a bit on the trampoline, we headed to Hazen High School's pool for free swim.  I wish it was free!  No really it was pretty inexpensive for eight people to swim.  I am so glad my kids are not afraid of the water and are all little fishes...shishes as B would say it!  

This is Taylor, she is such a good swimmer!  She will not need to take lessons this summer unless she wants to continue on in swimming.  The highschool has a swim team...
On her actual birthday, May 30th, Nana and Louise came into town and took us all to Red Robbin's restaurant.  It is tradition when they come into town to eat there.  The waiters sang to her and she got a sundae that she shared with everyone.

Among other gifts she had seen the Snuggie on tv and wanted one, but now it is in the upper eighties...hot, hot!  Nana and Louise brought her their neighbor's old basketball hoop and stand and gave it to Taylor.  Last night we went and bought a new rim and spray paint!  It is going to be so cool when we are done with it!  She is so excited about it!  It's a gift and a project!
My little Taylor is growing up too fast.  This past Sunday was her first time in Young Women's at church, this is where the 12-18 year old girls go to class.  She loved it.  She is very compassionate and thoughtful of others.  She loves to create things out of whatever is around her at that moment and never ceases to amaze us!  I am so glad she is my child!
