A Surprise Party!

Last week the R family had us girls over to surprise their daughter (one of my best friends) on her birthday.  After telling Leah we couldn't make it to her party she had planned (which we couldn't and then ended up being able to) and then surprising her while she was nannying, made her so happy!

recap of...

...this:)

6 years later, we did a recap of...

...this picture:)

It was so hard to get a good silhouette picture cause we both could not keep a straight face, so finally I had to look at her forehead and she at to look at my chin=D

"Yee-haa!"

Love you, Leah!

~freaking out over the Hobbit with your sister then realizing that your mom was on the phone and you had squealed loudly

~when you play catch football w/the younger boys at your church and end up jamming your finger while trying to block a pass.

~getting new slippers and trying to walk in them but end up almost breaking your ankle(I have now mastered walking in slippers;)

~a younger boy seeing your purity ring and joking, "Who are you married to?" :)

~that awkward moment when you have to say 'younger boy' instead of just 'boy' so your friend...hem...doesn't start teasing you;)

~naming the U.P.S. guy 'Ups(the actual word) Guy' several years ago and still calling him that whenever he drives by, "Oh, there's the Ups Guy!" :)

~when you open the door leading to your garage and all of the three cars are gone.  Your dad took his car to work, your mom took her car to run some errands, and your sister took her car to college.

~playin' live Moffia and when someone 'dies' hearing someone say, "Who would kill 'so-and-so'?  Oh yeah, that person would definitely kill 'so-and-so'."  Mildly concerned here...:)

~a younger boy wanting to accuse me of being the moffia but couldn't remember my name.  He finally remembers it and screams at the top of his lungs, "SARAH!!!"...everyone got deathly silence...I was thinking, "What did I ever do to you?" =)
