Happy Birthday to one of my FAVORITE GIRLS! Allie is a great sister and I love her to pieces. So in her honor, I'm sharing some of our birthday night together. AND...I compiled a list of
"23 Things I Love About Allie"
"23 Things I Love About Allie"
1. Allie has the prettiest smile.
2. Allie does the BEST impression of people. (movie stars, friends, family...and usually when you do something that you don't want remembered!)
3. Allie is very smart.
4. Allie is a great spiritual example.
5. Allie is the most dramatic person that I've ever met. If you know her, you know she can turn making a sandwich into a dramatic experience.
6. Allie has her own style. it usually involves flip flops. (although I'm impressed that she wears wedges a little more now.)
7. She has a great cardiovascular system and can outrun me in a heartbeat.
8. She also stinks like a siv when she exercises. I really miss our workout sessions together.
9. Allie has her own...sense of cleaning. I thought I would miss her stuff all over the bathroom counter, but I'm sad to say- I don't.
10. Even though I make fun of it- I love her crooked toes. (She'll hate me for mentioning it.)
11. I love how no-one in the world shares a love of Broadway musicals like my sisters do. I love that they are up for any show with me.
12. I love how Allie can immitate my dad and mom with perfection. (You should see it sometime.)
13. I love the man that Allie chose to marry. I think he's great and I hope I'm lucky enough to find someone so wonderful for myself.
14. I can get Allie to try almost any of my wierd eating concoctions. I know she loves my cooking. As plain as it is- she wants to cook like me. :)
15. Allie ate a bird egg when she was 2 or 3 and we have the video to prove it. See!! The girl is adventurous.
16. We used to call her "Bainey."
17. She is the only one in our family who has been to Italy and Greece. I'm so jealous. She totally worked her butt off for over a year to save for that trip!
18. She is the only person in our family who hates scrapbooking. She is kinda creative but not with pictures. She throws her pictures in a box- and it kills us.
19. She rarely takes a normal picture. Seriously they all have her tongue hanging out or googly eyes. And she's rubbing off on Aaron.
20. She LOVES Nordstrom, Forever 21, and Target - just like me. However, she LOVES really expensive jeans. Well, I do too- I just don't own any. :)
21. She has great taste in music. And it always amazes me how quickly she remembers the words. A song will barely come out and she already knows all of the words to it. How does she do that?
22. She and Audrey STILL treat Nathan like a baby. I think Allie will never let him grow up.
23. She loves her family. We love her too! Happy Birthday. (wish I could insert a picture of those dogs with BIG teeth right here...)
And NOW- if you already aren't sick of all my writing- here are the pictures from the event.

And NOW- if you already aren't sick of all my writing- here are the pictures from the event.
We took Allie to Cafe Rio for dinner. We had yummy salads. It was super fun.
I know what you are thinking. "Kate- didn't you take cake decorating classes? Aren't you supposed to be one of the world's best?" Well can you guess what this cake is? If you guess a decayed tooth you'd be correct. (It was supposed to look different.) I'm going to show up on the cakewrecks blog I just know it.
Audrey and I got her none other than a ticket to join us at the Broadway musical RENT when it comes to the Valley. She is really ecstatic if you couldn't tell in this picture.
Man! We are a good looking group of girls! Look like we've been through a few...huh?
Later that night we went out to San Tan Flatts to enjoy a fire pit and good ole country music. It was a lot of fun. Right guys? And no-one should mention ANYTHING else about the evening.
And my wonderful friend Kristie came to play with us!
