HAPPY FEBRUARY 26TH!!!!!

Okay, y'all may not know what February 26th is, but me, Julie and Ivy know!!! We've been waiting for this day...HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY, HILLRISE!!!! How do we know it's Hillrise's birthday? Well, we were told that is when the first house was built. I can't believe it's been a year since Hillrise first started!! We celebrated last weekend at our weekly neighborhood picnics and sang a song! Then Julie decided to eat her mom's CARROT FLAVORED JELL-O!! Me and Ivy don't like the idea of vegetable flavored gelatin, so we went for the Cothrans' cookies. Yes, being their niece's (Julie's) best friends had its perks. I also got my hands on some pasta salad made by the Hendersons. Then the Lings (Ivy's family) brought their famous hamburgers to the patch. But I still think everyone in the Albright-Cothran families make the best food! (Maybe that's why Julie snacked on carrot Jell-O.) We celebrated in other ways too-at school, we just couldn't get our minds off Hillrise! (I just wish Mrs. Berg didn't get mad at us for doodling pictures of Hillrise on our notes! MIDDLE SCHOOL IS SO HARD!!) After school, Mom took a picture of us in front of someone's car. We were just too happy!!! You can see the picture at the left here. Hope everyone has a fantabulous February 26th!!!
