Grandma G's Birthday Party



Garrans mom's birthday was actually today but we ended up celebrating this past Sunday. I tried to be nice and attempt to make a birthday cake for her, so that she would not have to make her own. I have to admit that I was disappointed at the outcome. I tried to make a horse cake for her because she really loves horses, but it did not turn out the best. Oh well it was ok. A little practice and I could get better. We had fun celebrating. They have a tradition of singing like 5-6 different versions of Happy Birthday. I have to admit that when I first joined the Gillespie Gang I was not an avid participant just because I did not know all the words to all the songs. But now 4 years later I am ready to go when it comes time to sing Happy Birthday at their parties. Kael really enjoyed the cake. We ended up throwing Cullan and Kael in the tub immediately after the cake eating was over. Pretty obvious from the picture why. Well

Happy Birthday Grandma G. Hope you had a Great Day!

I love the saying "the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother". My husband does an amazing job of that. I am truly married to my best friend. We laugh often and try to see the best in every situation, or at least find the humor in it. We have four beautiful children. Cullan (7) Kael (6) Briea (3) and Ayla (2). We are currently living in Illinois while Garran attends Grad School. He is a talented print maker and is enjoying his time here. He has a website if you are interested. www.garrangillespie.com Right now we are living every day to the fullest and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way!!

This explains why I blog so much RIGHT?

“Your journal is your autobiography, so it should be kept carefully. You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. …
“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?”
Elder Spencer W Kimball!

I need to read this every morning!

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley
