HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY BRITTANY

Today is Brittanys birthday. YAHOO!!! She is finally 18 it seems like the whole time you are a teenager you cant wait to be 18. Now the day has come and the only difference is she could buy cigarettes legally if she wanted to. I love on Gilmore Girls when Lorilee gets in bed with Rory and tells her about the day of her birth. I can remember feeling scared, excited, nervous, in anticipation of this little bundle of joy coming to our family. My mom and Erin were already with us (Phoenix, Az) because they were so excited to see the first granddaughter born. (no really i that i was having labor pain the first part of August, my mom thought i knew what i was talking about so she had my Dad rush them down now 3 1/2 week later the doctor was finally starting me) Brittany was perfect she had the most beautiful skin and a full head of black hair. The nurse said to us she needs to have a beautiful name to go with this beautiful baby. We had the hardest time agreeing on anything. Everything I liked Guy didn't. Finally we decided on BRITTANY SARAH LEWIS. We love you girly!!!!! Thank for being the best part of our family!!!!!!!

THIS GIRLS GROWING UP FAST

You know it seems like yesterday I was 9 month + pregnant waiting for this little thing to come out of my body. Now almost 18 years later how far we have come. Yesterday Brittany got her Young Womans Medallion. She kind of left it to the last minute, but thanks to a Great Young Womans leader to light a little fire under her, she got it done. I am so proud of her. She even bore her testimony when they gave it to her. (if you know Brittany the only time you hear her testimony is at Girls Camp and maybe at Seminary). Grandma and Grandpa Thomson came and so did her Dad. It was a need expericane. I am so thankful for the Great Example she has been to our family.

Way to go BRITT
