Happy Birthday, Nicole!

My first baby is now 15!  It's hard to believe how quickly 15 years have gone and even harder to believe that she'll start driving soon!  She'll (reluctantly) get her permit this year and this time next year, she'll be able to get her driver's license.  

This year, her birthday fell on a Sunday and we planned for dinner at the Olive Garden.  This was her dinner choice so Heath and I picked these girls up and made our way to the restaurant.  Only, when we turned the corner to our table, my mom, Buddy, Crystal and Kalie were there waiting for us!!  Nicole was so surprised :)  She had no idea it wasn't just the four of us for dinner.  We showered her with presents before dinner and then the waitstaff sang to her before cake.  It was a fun night filled with family, laughs and yummy food.
