Whitlee's 11th Birthday

Our bug turned 11!  I can't believe she is nearly a teen.  Since her birthday is on April Fools Day, we always have to think of a good joke.  This year, we saran wrapped her doo, but she was too smart for us.   She heard us being too noisy as we put it up and she caught on.

Her dad made her a little treasure hunt that all the siblings had to help to solve. 

After the birthday cake disaster that I made last year,  she decided to have a hand in helping me make and decorate her cake this year. 

Nature played a cruel April Fool's joke on us all and despite it being April, we got a late season snow storm

On her birthday night,  she decided she wanted the family to try out a Bob Ross painting night!

Whitlee also got to have a birthday party this year, where we took her and some friends to Jump In, which is an inflatable jumping toy park.

She had an amazingly fun birthday.
