3. She started playing soccer when she was just 4 or 5.

16. She is super sensitive and really cares about others.


17. She once broke her ankle by jump-roping backwards down our driveway.

Happy Birthday Lanx! So Shoeg, Lanx thinks you are my favorite and you think Lanx is my favorite. What about Pete and Tates?
Great tribute to Lanx. You are a great sister. We are very lucky to have four great kids!

Happy Birthday, Lanx! I have to admit that I have a little crush on you, too. I hope that you have a great day.
p.s. Heidi, I love the boobie comment. Sisters are so fun. :)

Heid, Don't you know the middle child is always the favorite? Can't believe she is 19 already and only a year younger than Brekke and Brekke is married. I can't picture Lanx being married so that just reminds me how young Brekke is. It seems like just yesterday that we were on our Disney cruise! WOW how time flies :0)
