Happy Birthday Marquie Spark!

Today is Marquie's birthday. She is finally 15 and started High School today. We celebrated her birthday yesterday because she's gonna be gone all day today:(
We woke her up bright and early by singing a very off key version of Happy Birthday- I think we were all still a bit tired. She did get her traditional breakfast in bed, although I don't think she likes this tradition as much as she did when she was little- teenagers like their sleep. I'll be in huge trouble if I put the picture of her actually eating with her "just woke up" hair and no make-up.


Last night we had a family birthday party. Here is Marquie showing off her beautiful nails. That was Grandma Vickie's present to her. Woohoo!

Marquie is a HUGE Jason Mraz fan. As soon as she heard he was coming in concert she's been asking to go. So you can guess what she got from mom and dad. She was extremely happy!

Marquie asked for peach pie instead of cake- a little bit harder to put candles on, but we improvised.

Marquie and Jordan just before they left for school this morning. What a way to start your birthday! Oh well. Hope you have a great day anyway Marquie. We love you!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Marquie. Your not old enough to be sixteen are you? Seems like yesterday you were 5. Hope you have a great year at school. Love you

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARQUIE! We miss you! I hope that you have a great day! I didn't get your present off on time. Hopefully that is why having an aunt out of state is fun - getting a present late means your birthday keeps going and going and going and going (you get the point!)

Love you!
The Portland Meier's!
PS I cannot believe how long your hair is getting!

Happy Happy Birthday Marden dear. Happy days will come to you all year, (I can't remember the rest). I hope you had a great day. And I agree with Shay, you and Jord looked fabulous today. Dayna...that bottom picture of her looks so much like you.

I can't believe you have two kids in High School. That is nuts! I remember being Marquie's T.A. in dance when she was maybe four. Time sure flies! Happy Birthday!

Justin and Tasha said...

Wow... it is hard to believe that you even have kids that old. I remember Jordan at the dance stuff and he was just a " little Boy " !!! Its sad to say but, I guess Im getting old to :( !

Momberger said...

Holy Hanna she is gorgeous! You have some dang cute kids!

Jamie said...

Wow. Your kids are beautiful! Well I guess the boys are handsome not beautiful but you get the point. :) Anyway, she closed the party that day but I don't think it would have made a difference if you had booked on that day or not. But if you still want to have one just go to www.shoeparty.com and click on the "shoe parties" tab and then at the bottom there is a link that says "contact us" and you can book one through that. :)

What happened to my teeny, tiny niece and nephew! You two are so grown up, I just started to tear up looking at that picture! You both look fabulous! I love you Marden and Jord! Hope the first day was spectacular!

Hooray for Marquie! Wow, 15? Unfortunately this means an entire year of missing out on High School dating. That sucks! She'll survive I am sure. What a good girl she is! Cute first day of school pictures.

HORROCKS FAMILY said...

It still doesn't seem like you are old enough to have kids in high school!! Marquie is beautiful and Jordan is so handsome!!

Rachel said...

She is so cute Dayna! Looks like she had a fun party!

Jake and Christina said...
