18!

 It is verrrrry hard to believe, but our sweet Rayna is now 18!  She had a terrific birthday... perhaps her best ever!

Right away in the morning she was thrilled to be remembered by friends and family.... Her cousin Nate called her from college and she was so tickled.  Then she saw this sign that our next-door neighbors put up for her!

Then we gathered up some friends and went to play mini golf, which was super fun.

Getting presents was a highlight, too.... Especially the electric piano from us and Nonna and Poppa!

But the BEST part of the day for her was getting to go to some of her new favorite people's house -- the Browns.'  Since it was Brian and JT's birthdays a few days later, we all enjoyed a big celebration.  Jodi was so sweet to go all-out and decorate and everything!  Plus, they had water balloons, corn hole, bocce, the big balls you can get inside, balls on a trampoline... everything you need for a PAR-TY!  I don't think Rayna stopped grinning all night.
