Who Done It?

Oh it's good to be fifteen!

I remember those carefree days. All the time spent with friends...no cares in the world...all you really had to worry about was, well..........your entire future!

But between the hectic school schedule, seminary, wanting a car, wondering where to go to college, (and soon voice lessons), bugging mom about a car, worrying about how much car insurance will cost once we have a student driver (oh wait, that's me), and being a wonderful big sister, Gabby has some time to spend with her friends.

Just a side note about Gabby's pals. She has known these girls since we moved here six years ago. She was in the fourth grade and hating her parents because we moved her in the middle of the year. She didn't know anyone and she was afraid that no one would like her. But she made friends fast and they have continued to be the best of friends. She has had this group of seven that she does everything with. If she isn't with one of these girls she's with another. As a mom I have felt very fortunate that these girls come from such great families and they are a support and encouragement to Gabby and she to them. I coached them in Volleyball for three years and have watched them grow so I feel a little bit of ownership in them. I know the other moms feel the same way.

This year for Cheyenna's birthday (16th), she hosted a murder mystery dinner. Gabby was supposed to be "Torchy" a lounge singer from the late 1920's. They had so much fun. In the end it was Cheyenna who was the murderer.
