Makel just turned "sweet 16" on April 26 and Kirsten turned "13" on May 1. We had a surprise birthday party for Makel at our house with a group of her friends. Thanks to her friend Ashley, we were able to pull it off nicely without Makel knowing. They had a lot of fun. The following morning they went to the Bountiful Temple to do baptisms for the dead.
When you have two teenage daughters whose birthdays are 5 days apart, you have to do for one what you do for the other. Kirsten was able to invite a group of her friends over and have a party as well. Its hard to believe that I now have two teenagers. They have both have a good group of friends who they like to spend time with quite often. Friends are always welcome at our house to come and hang out.
