Ailey's 17th Birthday

 Happy Birthday Ailey!


She's 17!!

Ailey's birthday was a bit of a bust this year but she was a good sport about it. It came right in the middle of the busiest weekend imaginable. The good news was that she got to celebrate it at the lake and that Kirk and Meki were here.

Her birthday started out in Spokane. She and Tyler both had to work so they were in town and Bryn and I were out at the lake. Ailey woke up to donuts and chocolate milk from Tyler which she loved! Bryn and I drove into Spokane and picked her up when she was done with her breakfast shift. We had decorated the lake house and made her favorite ice cream cake. Ailey wanted to go to McDonald's for lunch so we did that too. The majority of her friends were all at youth conference. (Ailey didn't get to go because she couldn't take work off.) Even though her friends weren't supposed to have their phones at youth conference Ailey got a lot of hilarious videos, birthday posts, and messages!!

That afternoon Kirk, Meki, and Tyler all arrived. In between all of the work to get the lake house ready for the photographer who was coming the next day we managed to have a pizza party for Ailey and ate her ice cream birthday cake and even found time for a night swim.

After our hectic weekend was over and we were back in town. Ailey requested a clothes shopping spree and lunch date. We found her some cute summer clothes and had fun! The day after that we headed to Utah, which was also something that she really wanted to do for her birthday, so she could have a lot of cousin time with Kaiya. 


Cutest cousins!!

So even though it was kind of a hectic birthday; Ailey still had fun and felt loved and celebrated.

Happy Birthday Ailey!!

We LOVE you!
