Phalen Anderson had her 12th birthday party Sunday, Sept. 20. Instead of receiving gifts she requested that her invitees bring donations for the Rangely Animal Shelter. Phalen and her mother also adopted a dog from the shelter, her name is Suki. The Rangely Animal Shelter appreciates the caring heart of this young lady and her friends. What a wonderful surprise for the shelter and all of the animals. The girls in the picture are (left to right) Phalen Anderson and her dog Suki, K.K. Wyaman, Marlena Miller, Abby Shriver and K.C. Mercado.
