Allison is Eighteen!

Allison is 18 today!  
We did our best to make her feel special since we are still under quarantine.  We decorated her door as we do every year
 and made the kitchen look festive too! 
We told her we were going on a family walk, but instead, she walked out to a birthday parade in her honor!
Such wonderful friends lined our street and honked their horns as they made their way by our house...delivering balloons, signs and gifts.

 She felt so loved!
 We kept our distance and visited for a bit out front.
 Then Kylee took her to the park for a little picnic...so sweet!
 In the afternoon, we met up with a photographer to do Allie's senior photo shoot.
 It was nice to do something somewhat normal for a few hours and enjoy the change of scenery!

We ended the night with La Cocina takeout and a special birthday cake/gifts.  I know this isn't the 18th birthday celebration she envisioned, but I hope she felt the love of family and friends.  Happy 18th Allison!
