Happy Birthday, Peanut!


Today is my daughter's birthday. Yes, my little Peanut turned sweet 16 today. We were at the DPS this morning when they opened at 8 am to get her driver's license. Alissa is a licensed driver now!

Here is a picture of her "driving" at one year old...




And here she is this morning...



Alissa, I probably don't tell you this often enough, but I am very, very proud of you. You are growing into a wonderful young lady right before my very eyes. Just remember that no matter how old you get, you will always be my Peanut! I love you! Happy birthday, baby!

wow she is beautiful!!!

you asked where I ordered my camera...
B&H. I have never ordered from them but they seemed like a good company. I was nervous as I don't want to chance getting a "gray market" camera. Do you know anything about b&H?

Clear the roads! With your daughter and my grandson both driving now, all Texans better look twice and drive once...or is that about sawing boards.

Whatever, happy birthday Alissa!

A beautiful young lady, inside and out. As I recall, and as Mom said, 16 is a fun year! I'm not sure if it's fun for you. But, she'll probably enjoy it! haha ~Mindy
