I love birthdays. A lot of people keep telling me that I will start to hate my birthday as I get older. I say to them that any day where people make me delicious food, buy me presents, and generally treat me like royalty is a fantastic day!
This year was especially great. Logan woke up early and made me tapioca pudding and orange julius. Then, Mom watched the kids while Taylor and Shawn took me (and Caleb) out to Lee's Mongolian BBQ in Ogden, bought me gelato, and took me to see the movie Edge of Tomorrow (I loved it!). I felt super spoiled. Thanks again Taylor and Shawn!!!
In the evening I got one of the worst migraines ever, so we scrapped our previous plans and I had Logan go pick up Cafe Rio (delish!). Plus after dinner we opened presents and even Kaya sang happy birthday. All in all, and in spite of the migraine, it was a fantastic day!

The next day we all drove up to Mirror Lake! It was gorgeous and we had so much fun hiking, fishing, and canoeing.

| Kaya and Lucy LOVED canoeing |
 |
| Lucy caught a fish! |

| She was very excited about it. =) |
We even hiked all the way to Blithe Lake!

| It's always so fun to hang out with Madeline! |
 |
| Lucy took this picture of Caleb and me. =) |
Lucy got lazy on the way home and relied on the sympathies of Papa and Shawn to carry her.
It was so fun hanging out with Tay and Shawn, and Madeline and Asher! Lucy asked me yesterday if Madeline and Asher would be at Marmie's house. I wish, Lucy!

| Madeline read tons of books to Lucy. Lucy LOVED it! |
 |
| Asher loves Caleb! |
Lucy and Kaya love their cousins! Come back soon, please!

WOnderful photos and bday story (in spite of the migraine). I love that Lucy excited face. AND I love that Kaya is a better photographer (in this example at least) than her big sis. Madeline looks so grown up too! Love you!
What great photos! We had such a great time together. Thanks for this wonderful post!
