Lindsay turns 15

Lindsay wanted to buy something from Hollister or Abercrombie this year for her birthday shopping so we headed to Boise. The weather the day before was not very good, but once we got to Bliss the roads were fine. Dave had gone to Boise the day before Christmas shopping, and he said it wasn't busy at all. We got to the mall and couldn't even find a good parking spot it was so packed. We went to Vanity and she found this cute hat... We ate lunch at the food court....

She didn't find anything at Hollister, so we went to Abercrombie and she found a shirt and a pair of sweats that she really liked. She had really been wanting a new pair of sweats so she was happy.
I was doing some Christmas shopping while we were there and by the time I took this picture she was about done. She still had money left, but we were both tired so we came home. We had a good day and I loved spending it with her.


For Brooke's birthday I wrote a few things about her and I wanted to do the same thing with Lindsay.

1. After six years of being in Gooding she finally has her own room. She picked out the paint and the comforter.

We trimmed around the window and put up blinds.

Dave picked out some Japanese lanterns and hung them for her.. she really likes those.


Her room is really cute and now that she has more room she keeps it really clean. Her closet is very organized and she hangs things in a certain order. She has some pictures on her desk and she likes them to be in an exact spot. The funny thing is that every time I would go in her room I would put them in the spot I wanted...then when I would go back in they would be moved so I would put them back...finally she was in there one day and I went to move them and she informed me that she wanted them there and she couldn't figure out why they were moved all the time!
2. She is really liking music right now. She loves her IPOD and it seems like she always has music playing. Even when she is on the computer doing something she will have her playlist going.
3. She likes Suduko. There are lots of nights when I will go into her room and she will be listening to music and doing Suduko puzzles. She has a book of them that she has almost finished.
4. She likes toffee, Dr Pepper, and chocolate covered raisins. Dave got me a big thing of raisins in October and she ate most of them! She doesn't like Raisinets though, just the ones from Costco. For Christmas we got her a movie and her own thing of raisins.
5. She is a lot like me...if you have been around us much you know how true this is. She is a good artist, although she doesn't really like to draw, and she definately gets that from her dads side of the family.
6. She is a saver with her money. Brittney and Brooke tend to spend their money as fast as they get it. Lindsay is a lot better at keeping it...she has even started her own bank account and has money saved there.
Happy Birthday Lindsay-we love you.
