Today is Katie’s BIRTHDAY! She is the magnificent 14, able to attend dances at last. I gave her a little impromptu quiz in the car this morning, so here is a taste of Kate (our favorite flavor):
Favorite food? Cucumbers and tiramasu (not together, I hope)
Favorite movie? “Fifty First Dates”
Favorite book? “Twilight” (I think I’m gonna have a heart attack and die from that surprise)
Best place she’s been? Chincateague Island
Favorite restaurant? Macaroni Grill or Cheesecake
Beach or snow? Beach
Best friend or lots of friends? Lots of friends
Favorite temple? Washington D.C. because it looks like a castle
Favorite band? This prompted her to bounce in her seat and shout “Jonas Brothers”
Early morning or late night? Late night
Cats or dogs? a whole monologue ensued on how she wants to say dogs because if she didn’t it might hurt Riley’s feelings, but she loves cats too and doesn’t want to make the cats feel bad, and this question makes her feel very uncomfortable.
Favorite store? and I quote, “All stores are my friends”
We love you Katie! You have been a ray of sunshine since you first entered our lives. Your Dad and I are so proud of your hard work at school, your talents in drama, and especially your tender concern for everyone’s feelings. Love your show, babe!

I don’t know if you remember me, but many years ago I was in the Oakton ward. And you were too.
I remember your two little girls and their cute dresses they wore every Sunday.
Found your blog listed on Heather Porter’s and took a peek. I’m enjoying seeing your family and how those two little ones have turned to four and have gotten older. Enjoyed your posts.

A long time ago, I was in the Oakton ward.

I happened on your blog from Paige’s blog.
Now your two are four and they have grown and it’s been fun seeing your cute family.
Hope all is well and I look forward to reading more.
(I actually tried to post this same comment last week, but it never worked.)
