Field Day at Turnberry today! Yes- ON Angela's Birthday! Lucky girl!!!















Angela's Birthday!!!! Amazing!!! Fun!!! I LOVE my sweet Angela!!! When we talked about Angela today...we spoke of things we loved about our sweet Angel and some of our favorite memories with our sweeties....

Emily - Loves to play with Angela. They esp. love to play babies together right now. Twins, in particular. They each have a set of twins they go around and play with and care for.

Carolyn - Loves to play with Angela. With Angela's new barbies, it's been fun to watch Carolyn play Barbies with her sissy. She's never been a huge barbie fan but loves playing with her sweet sissy. She loves playing with Angela. They like to play at the park, do crafts together, play games like Uno together, etc.

Mom - I said I love how Angela is so hard working. She is quick to help me and is observant to things she can do. I think she's got those "Spiritual Eyes" that Sister Bednar has. She just has her eyes open in how she can be an instrument in His hands and serve. I also love how Angela shows so much love through touch. When I drop her off for school she gives me about a million hugs and kisses. Same with before bed. And they have to be GOOD hugs and kisses or they just don't count :) I love that about her. I LOVE that she loves soft tickles. When she was 1 years old, she would lay on me and put both arms up like she was a mummy to show me that she wanted to snuggle and I tickle her arms. She still the same way. She is also very obedient. Extremely obedient. When I tell her to do something, she usually gets right to it. She was blessed as a baby as being obedient and I have definitely seen that amazing spiritual gift of hers.

Dad - Daddy said she was beautiful. Angela is so beautiful. I love that those two love to snuggle. Both Daddy and Angela are ALWAYS looking for someone to snuggle and get soft tickles. Those two are a perfect fit :)

I love Angela!

Some of her favorites:

 ----Playing School. She loves to set up chairs with stuffed animals infront of our big white board. She teaches and teaches. She also loves when Emily, Carolyn, or me join in on the fun. I LOVE the fact that Angela is always teaching her class. They are ALWAYS with her. We will be in the store and she will continue on with her "class" on what they need to discuss that day. It makes me smile. I love that sweet girl.

-----Riding bike. Oh - they girl LOVES to ride her bike. She could do it forever. We went for a 2 mile bike ride the other day and she loved it. LOVES to ride and ride ALL the time.

----Loves her friends. Best friends are from school - Corrinna, Savannah, Harlow, Ralein, Aalieyah, Jenna, and Hannah.

----- Loves to dress up. Loves makeup. Loves dresses. Loves sparkles. Loves shoes. Loves bows. Loves painting her nails. Girly? She loves it.

----- Loves to learn. She has to work hard in school. It doesn't come easy to her. But I am so proud of the way she works her hardest and bestest and LOVES it. She loves learning time with me and being at school learning. Speaking also doesn't come easy to her. Most of us can just say our sounds without thought. Angela not so much. It takes hard work ---very hard work---to remember how to make her sounds correctly. She takes her trials with a smile and allows them to make her the person Heavenly Father wants her to be. She works hard and has a good attitude. I love her example.

------Sweet as can be. Loves to make people happy. Is sweet. Loves snuggling and giving loves. Loves being silly. Loves early mornings. Loves being outside. LOVES swimming. Swimming is by far her favorite sport and activity.

Bday Guests: Chris Kim, Janeil, Katie, Anna, Troy, Jackson, Lucy, Harlow, Corrinna, Savannah, Aayliah, Jenna, Harlow's little sister, and Lauren.
