Whatever Weekend is something I started a few weeks ago. A peek into my personal and family life, hopefully not enough to bore you though. Today, I want to share a few (ok, there’s a lot) photos of my daughter, Kristen. She’ll be celebrating her Sweet 16 in about a month. My only baby girl, surrounded by boys, has blossomed into a beautiful young women. She’s bright, kind, and a joy to be around. I love her with all of my heart.
These are some photos that she’s taken, either of herself or with friends over the past couple of years.
That’s me and Krissy. She used the built in webcam on my Mac to sneak a picture of me.
This is Kristen and her childhood friend, Dakota, again, messing around on my Mac.
Her boyfriend has a snowmobile and they love to go out riding.
Last summer, heading out of Libertyfest, a small festival put on in our little lake town.
Being silly with her friend Isabel.
Just laying around. ;)
She was on the Powder Puff team for homecoming this year. They won! Pictured here with her boyfriend, Nick.
A picture taken two autumns ago with her friend Dakota.
More Mac webcam magic.
I know it’s just feet, but I love this picture. I don’t know why. It’s just great :) It’s her and Nick.
Awwww. I hope her and Nick never break up. I’ll be so devastated LOL! He’s such a gentleman and is wonderful to her. He’s a rare find these days. Especially in teenage form.
This is one of my favorite pictures of all. It screams happiness, friends, summer, memories and youth. This was taken last summer off the pier on the lake in town.
I love you Krissy. Keep up the great pics, and your great life. You are going to do great things. I know you are. I have faith in you, my sweet. The world is better place simply because you are in it.
Love, Mom

Thanks for sharing these. In some pictures she looks so much older and in others she is still just about 16 – quite the artist with the photos too.
So sweet! Kristen is such a beautiful young lady. I remember when she was a preteen! I love, love, love the black and white pics!
