Marlee turns 17!


My little girl turned 17 in January.

We snuck gobs of balloons in to her room the night before her birthday (idea courtesy of Pinterest)  

so she would wake up to this......

Some of the strings were so long that they tickled her face & kind of freaked her out in the middle of the night.  Ha ha!



She wanted to go skiing for her birthday, so Brian took her & Jake up to Utah for the weekend.
