I think it was sometime last summer when I first heard Shelby counting down to her 18th birthday.  February seemed like a million years away and she could hardly wait.  Over Christmas break, Shelby and a few of the girls came home with me and we decided that that would be a great way to celebrate Shelby's upcoming birthday, too.  So a couple of weeks ago, on the weekend of Shelby's 18th birthday, we headed up to my parent's house for a birthday celebration.  The other girls weren't able to come with us, but we had a great weekend in spite of missing them!
