Today Gracie Jo is SEVEN!




I can't believe she's so old! It honestly seems like it was not that long ago that we were living in Logan and walking across the street from our little apartment to the hospital for a scheduled c-secion. Gracie was the ideal first child. She was always such a good baby and continues to be a good girl to this day. She is such a sweet, loving, caring person. One of her very favorite things to do is spend time with her entire family. She loves to play with all her cousins and her sisters are her very best friends. She has her moments when she isn't entirely pleasant but most of the time when you see her there's a twinkle in her big brown eyes and huge smile on her face. We have been so blessed to have Gracie in our family and watch her grow into the wonderful young girl that she is . She is such a good example to her younger sisters and is such a big help to her parents. We love you Gracie!!!!!

Today is also another important birthday! Gracie Jo was born on her Grandpa Joe's birthday. Which is why her middle name is Jo. He says he's turning all of the birthdays over to Gracie but we wanted to give him a shout out anyway. Happy birthday Duffer! This is him and Gracie on the day she was blessed.

I have been SOOOOOOO bad about getting on the blogs lately, you have updated a lot and I have nothing to say for my slacking. First I love that Gracie Jo and somewhere in my vain heart I think you knew we would end up being best friends and so we should both have a child with the middle name Jo! After being down here in ST. George again, you and I just need to find that second home and have Tim and Greg send us a monthly allowance! I miss you!
This is Billie Jo, I am just using Giselle's laptop while we are here!
