16th Birthday Extravaganza!

I'm 16. It still kind of baffles me. I remember planning out my 16th birthday when I was 9 years old, thinking "Only 7 more years to go!" Obviously those plans were not executed, I had very different ideas in mind! Do you remember having that special birthday feeling? Like when you were younger and it just felt so different when it was your birthday, as if the whole world was focused on you and your big day! I was talking to my grandma about that, and how I don't feel that anymore. She said I probably never will again, that happens when you grow up. Do you know how upsetting that is?! It just bothers me. I mean don't get me wrong, I had a wonderful birthday! It just felt like every other day. Which means I'm getting older. 

For my birthday plans, we decided to rent a boat and a cabin and hang out on the lake all day! It was SO much fun! Lynnlee and Madison came with my family and me, so it was impossible not to have fun! 

Here I am, being 16 and stuff.


We were finding sticks for roasting marshmallows, so that's why I was holding a stick, haha. Please enjoy the moments we captured by the lake. (:













Catching crawdads!
Everybody exploring.
