13 big ones!

Our little red-headed Ashley turned 13 on Wednesday! It is hard to believe that it was 13 years ago that Kevin and I were driving down to the hospital in the wee hours of the morning listening to "Time in a Bottle" on the radio.
My mom and dad were serving a mission in Nauvoo, Illinois and I was sad that they couldn't be there, but I guess my mom had a preview because she called me a few days before Ashley was born and told me she had a dream that the baby was a girl and she had red hair. Lo and behold, it was just as she dreamed. I think it was Heavenly Father's way of making up for her not being able to be there.
Ashley is a very special girl. She has always had a determined spirit and is self-motivated. She has a sweet, shy smile but also plenty of spunk! Happy Birthday Ashley! We love you!

Here are some pictures of the birthday party Ashley had with a couple friends. They played wallyball (sp?) at the Provo Rec. Center and then came back to our place for dinner. And to cap it off, we have a little snow outside to give it that Winter Wonderland feel!
