Jill is 17 years old!!

Jill's 17th birthday fell on a Thursday where they had school and rodeo Academy. I had an Ag Society meeting and Austin had an interview with the stake president that night.  So we had her birthday dinner of steak and mashed potatoes the night before.

For her birthday breakfast we had sticky buns and peaches and she opened her presents. She got a new skirt, shirt, shoes, running pants, and hat from all of us which none of them were a surprise. Grandma Carol gave her a John Bytheway book and Grandma Nunn gave her an emergency car kit. She said she felt old getting a car kit.

We did take cupcakes to Academy. And then her friends Brooklyn Bevans and Sara Bevans showed up at 10 PM with an ice cream cake. 

Happy birthday to Jill!

I almost forgot about Carly's gift to Jill. First she was going to sew her a quilt. She cut 30 squares and handstitched 10 of them together. Then she abandoned that project when we couldn't get the sewing machine to work. Next she carved a stick for Jill. Then we had to go to the dollar store and she bought her gum and nail clippers. She also molded clay to say Jill and wrote her a note on a colored picture.
