MEET ZOE AND GRACIE

I am posting about Zoe and Gracie together because they should have been twins. Zoe is 6 and attends kindergarten. Gracie is 5 and will attend kindergarten this fall. Zoe was 9 months old when we found out that Gracie would be joining us. when Gracie got here Zoe didn't like it at first and smacked her on the head. after that they didn't do anything apart. they were known as the babies; until recently when they informed me that they were not babies anymore. Now they are the sisters or the big girls. Zoe has been so sweet to share her baby years with Gracie. They had a really hard time being apart when Zoe started school. again Zoe is the best big sister ever. as soon as she gets home from school she shows Gracie everything she did. She even gave Gracie all the paper sack puppets she made in school "to keep".

MEET THE PARENTS

Chris and I met on a blind date and married about 3months later. I know right? We will be married for our 15th year in June. Chris and I had so much fun dating that we never left each others sight; unless to go to work or school. I was at his house so much that his landlord worte him a letter about me staying there too much. when he read me the letter I said that we shoud just get married. well 12 hours later and a trip to vegas we tied the knot. well I wont lie and say its been a rose garden the whole time. we have had our ups and downs, but have grown together. we are so glad that we have stayed together, because we have accomplished a lot and it has been worth the work.

Chris works hard for our family welding, and is a great father to our five girls. I am a mother and CNA working on becomming a RN. We have a full house. Five kids all girls. We also have 2 dogs 2 cats and a very loud bird.
