Sydney's 14th!

My oldest niece and goddaughter turns 14 tomorrow!  To celebrate the young lady that Sydney is becoming, Scott and Joy had all of the family over for a party yesterday. After dinner, Uncle John really got the party started with an original rap he wrote for Syd.
 All of her cousins wanted a front-row seat to watch Sydney unwrap her gifts.
 There was a heavy KU theme to her gifts -- she got some really cool stuff!

 Calvin made her one of his famous homemade cards.
 Grandma Jo made one of her famous candy bouquets. . . that has somewhat morphed into a more-teenage-girl-appropriate bouquet complete with make-up and frappuccinos (but still contains candy, too, of course).
And Grandma Cheryl made another famous cake, this time a beetle bug car with Sydney in the driver's seat!  Yes, this girl is getting her learner's permit this week!
 
Even though Sydney was the star of the party, Baby Grayson took a close second.  This kid is just too cute.
 
With the addition of our adorable newbie, the kid picture around the cake is the biggest it's ever been with 12!  And it may not be the best picture in the world, but considering you can see 12 faces, I felt it was highly successful!
 Happy Birthday, Sydney!  We love you so much and are very proud of you!
