Alayna #18

Our last sweet baby turned 18.  Ugh....
It's so cliche, but it literally feels like yesterday we brought home our Mousey, and now she's a grown adult....


Alayna was our bonus baby.  I had always wanted 3 kids and we did try one more time for baby #3 about a year and a half after we had Emma, to no avail. 
We felt it was God's will to have our two girls and decided to be done.  
2 weeks after breaking ground on building a new house, I realized I was one day late.  Brad actually questioned it first but I thought there was no way I could be pregnant.  I know my body so well.  I waited a day and decided to test and wouldn't you know it, it was POSITIVE!  I was ELATED!  
I just felt we were meant to have 3, and this was the BEST surprise of my life!
I say it every year, but we could not imagine our lives without Mousey.
She is full of spunk, sass, sarcasm and is so damn funny.





Nowadays the below pic is what I get for her 18th birthday, haha!
Her hair "was a mess" and she was wearing her glasses and I had strict instructions of not posting a pic anywhere, so here we are.


Happy 18th Mousey!!

Alayna Senior Prom

Alayna 's very last prom, I can't belive this is our last...
Her friend Kaitlin had the girls over to her house to get ready, I LOVED how her hair turned out!


Her dress was my absolute favorite and fit her like a glove!
Such beautiful girls!


She went with her guy friend Carson Welle who is actually my brother-in-laws nephew so they know each other well.  They are two peas in a pod!


Where oh where did our baby mousey go??












Such a fun night!
