Kaelei Is Finally 16!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thankyou everyone!!!!!!!! I had a wonderful birthday! Its weird to think that I am actually 16 I never thought the day would come! I can DATE yay! Oh and I can't forget I get to DRIVE! I think my parents are a little scared for those! ok not a little, ALOT! Ok so I didn't get to writing on my blog yesterday because I was tiered from all the days events! And here its how it went. So I was sleeping when Katharina came into the room at about 7:30 and woke me up saying Happy Birthday and said I needed to come downstairs. So we all went downstairs and on the table was a wonderful birthday cake and presents all set out on the table! I then sat down and blew out my candles and then we ate cake for breakfast. It was so yummy! Then I opened my gifts from their family. I got a picture frame with pictures of me swimming its so cool! and I got Puma brand FLIP FLOPS they are black and pink and sooooooooo cute! Then I opened my gift that was sent to me from my family. I got a CTR ring and CTR earings! (I wonder if they were trying to hint to me to be a good girl especially now that I can date he he.) They are awesome! After that I made No Bake Cookies for the party. Then Laura, Anna and I played cards. Then while we were waiting for the potatoes we were listening to the Mamma Mia CD again and we were being dorks and having a blast dancing around the kitchen again. Ha ha I think we now have all the songs memorized after listening to the Cd over 15 times in the last 2 days. Then we finished getting the house ready for the guests then they all started coming. After they had all shown up we got on our bikes and went over to Cloudia's to pick up her and her guests and then we rode to a lake! When we got there we ate lots of sweets and many other things. The weather was good but not extreamly warm but Anna, Laura, Cloudia, 2 of her guests Ines, Mieke and I all got in the freezing water! we had so much fun jumping in and getting back out, then doing it all over again. I think the rest of the guests thought we were all crazy because it was so cold! But it was so much fun! After we warmed up and got dressed we sat around and talked to eachother. I got to know people alot better and I got to meet some new friends of Cloudia's it was so much fun! After we rode our bikes home and we went in the backyard and ate some more and talked then people started leaving. Later on we still had some other guests and we decided to go to the park. It was lots of fun playing on all the stuff. Then after everyone else had left we went back to Anna's I opened my presents I got many things. I got Lots of chocolate yay! a cell phone holder, A burgdorf book, flowers, more chocolate, and I even got another cake! After I had opened my gifts I rode my bike to Quinn's to call and talk to my family! It was nice to hear from them! I guess the YW back home brought me balloons. Which is sooooo cool! After I came home and I went up and got in bed I was so tiered! It was the best 16th Birthday a girl could ask for!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAELEI!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, YOU OLD LADY! Now you are officially allowed to date. How does it feel? How was your party? I hope it was awesome. Sorry I couldn't be there for it.

Well, we are leaving Italy in about a half hour or so. I'm really sad. We just finished saying goodbye to the Animators, and we got pictures and gave hugs and kisses ;D (my favorite part lol). I'm really going to miss Italy, it is so fun here! Well, my time is up! Hopefully more tonight from me. Love ya!
