Meagan turns 17

Where does the time go? It seems completely impossible that my baby is 17. Today was a very special day.

Surprised her with the arrival of her grandparents a day earlier than she expected.
She got her first car
Shogun Japanese steakhouse for dinner
and a surprise cake party at our house when we got home.

Here are some pictures from the day.

Thank you Poppa!!!


Mine! All Mine!!

Banging the birthday drum


Trying to pick up a date on the way out


Can you tell they are all in drama?


Surprise!


Always an attractive picture of a person


I love you Meagan. You have been the source of some of the greatest joy in my life these 17 years, and of some of the greatest frustration LOL. You are a beautiful young woman, and one I am proud to call my daughter.
