Rachels 16th Birthday

Last night we celebrated Rachels 16th Birthday!

I love her sweet smile!

presents

Rachel and her violin.
 A couple of years ago we got Rachel a violin for her birthday.  She has been taking lessons off and on since then, and has gotten really good.  She shared a new song she has been learning as well as some old ones.  It is so pretty to hear coming up through the floor when I'm going about my day. :)
Two of our beautiful girls.
 So then, we talked Em into to playing the dulcimer with Rachel's violin.  It was so wonderful to hear them play together!

Big sisters who love their little brother! (Did you notice very soon he will be taller than both of them?)  :)

The Whitaker Girls. :)

Ummmmm....Ha! Ha!!  Hard working farm girls!  :)

The men farming from the kitchen table.  :)
It was a fun evening.  After the littles went to sleep we stayed up with the big kids and played cards, and then of course had to watch some tractor pulls on the computer.  A new pass time. :) It was great to be together.  What a blessing our family is to Doug and I.  I'm looking forward to the next birthday.  We have been in the time of the year where we have a birthday or 2 every month.  So there's lots of cake, presents, laughing and celebrating at the Whitaker Farm!  Thanks for visiting.
