this past weekend was full of encouragement & celebrations for a couple of the girls and their best friends
madison & her besties painted tshirts & wore pink to support & encourage her closest friend as her mommy endured her first surgery, all 10 hours , since being diagnosed with breast cancer. please note
even the cast, flips, painted nails, camis & hairbows are all pink
we love you jenny!!
i must share with you what savannah & her girlfriends did to celebrate one of the girls 16th birthday.
this surely wins the creativity award
& maybe an award for maybe a little over the top!
( can't wait to see what she whips up for my bday--wink!)
this involved months of planning , preparations & shopping
it all began with a typed "anonymous" letter being delivered to bday girl at school
followed by kidnapping & a scavenger hunt
here's the angels pre-kidnapping at birthday girl's home post hiding all her gifts
channeling their inner gangsta!
birthday girl being blindfolded
birthday girl cracking up as 2 of the angels take their task very seriously
savannah carrying in blindfolded bday girl
trying to continue to maintain all seriousness
much horsing around continues

the girls had bought her loads of gifts including a dress, shoes & jewelry for their evening event, which mind you is still a surprise
the angels have now dressed & left gangster wear behind
much horsing around continues
we're all about the hugs at 16 right?
birthday girl realizes the friends are also treating her to a night at the musical
Grease
poor corporate man caught in the paparazzi
please note the friends are all in black & felt later that they may have looked a little too dreary while birthday girl sports her new ensemble
which is NOT black
If there is ever a tomorrow when we are not together there is something you must always remember: you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think, but most important of all, even if we are apart, I'll always be with you.

I loved this entire post. What fun girls, and what a darling quote to end with!! Thanks for sharing.
You are raising some incredible girls there, Paige. I so wish I knew you in real life. I would ask you to be my mothering mentor:) Well, you are now anyway:)
Praying for mrs.jenny.
Paige what sweet and beautiful girls you have! I tried to raise my kids telling them that you have to be a friend to have friends! Don't know Mrs. Jenny but will say a prayer. My daughter's finance's momma is going through her own fight so if you will please lift her up too.
Aren't girls fun...even with ALL the drama. The love and support they give each other is amazing. I know I feel blessed to have been given 2 girls.
Enjoy your girls,
Dawn
