Louise and Brooklyn!

Brooklyn turned 13 today!  I can't believe we have another teenager in the house!  She's an extraordinary girl, so helpful, patient, kind, and amazing!  We love you dearly Brooklyn!

For her birthday meal, she chose Cinnamon Toast Crunch . . . and dinner rolls!  That's what she had for breakfast.  :)  I guess that's good, because last year she wanted to go to Chuck-A-Rama, and that cost us considerably more than this.

The other picture is me and Louise, my favorite
91 ½ year old!  We went to lunch this week at Sunshine Cafe, one of her favorite places to go.  After that, she "kind of" insisted that we go to Walmart so she could buy me a sweatshirt.  She doesn't want me to get cold this winter.  How could I refuse?!  I couldn't.

I love Louise because she loves gardening as much as I do.  But the memories I'll always cherish are the times she would drive down the street (the other Bountiful house), and honk when I was in the front yard working.  Often, scaring me to death.  She would always stop so we could talk for a few minutes.  She's an amazing lady!
