Brit's Sweet 16 Birthday Party - August 2013

On August 10th, a Saturday, we celebrated a day early Brit's 16th birthday in the River Hollow Park next to Logan River.  She invited several friends and family members.  Here's a re-cap in photos...

 Gayle, Cheri, and Janet executed the decorations and did a fantastic job.

 There was tons of food (some awaiting in coolers on the right).  Gayle and Janet work on some items to the left.

 Here is a table with some special decorations.

Two of Brit's cousins came all the way from Henderson, NV, with her dad, in order to attend.

 Rachel, Arleen's sister, came up with her dad Ray too.

 Cheri and Janet, two of Gayle's best friends.

 Adrian, Jared, and Ray, dressed for the beach theme.

 Our beach items came in handy for the decorations.  That's my long-board in the background

 Most enjoyed dancing to the DJ, including Ali, Rachel, and Gayle.  Ali and the girls put on a performance too.

 Adrian did a daddy-daughter dance with Brit.

 The DJ was great and even played a bunch of latino music.

Adrian and Arleen got in some dancing as well!
