Happy 45th Anniversary Mom + Dad!

WOW!  45 years of marriage.  Congratulations to Barb and Don for this incredible milestone.  They are an inspiration to all.  They have made it where so many others have not - ups and downs along the way but always with their hearts and minds firmly focused on the most important thing in the world - FAMILY.  They both embody dedication, love and unwavering commitment to their faith and their family.  We are so blessed to have them as our parents, in-laws and grandparents.

They are beloved by so many who I know wish them a very heartfelt and happy 45th wedding anniversary!

We love you Mom and Dad! 

Your adoring family

Doug + Ty at work for the Saints

How CUTE is our nephew Tyler {TY}?!?!?!?! 

He got to go to work with his Daddy {my brother Doug} at the New Orleans Saints {where Doug is the Director of Communications and New Media} a few weeks ago - one of his very favorite things on this earth to get to do.  

What a lucky little guy to get to hang out with all the super nice, big football players while they practice! The official team photographer grabbed this photo - priceless!!

Grinnals Family "Wordle"

Just before bed tonight I had the girls throw out word that best describe their family and living in Celebration.  We quickly made up this "wordle" for the Grinnals Family. Pretty cool!  Only took about 3 minutes and we played around a bit with colors and layouts and all settled on this one.  Annie has already made one of her own.  Fun!

Aunt Kathleen is Getting Married!

We are so, so, so excited that Aunt Kathleen is getting MARRIED!!!!  Yay!  She is marrying a great guy from England named Judd on March 14th, 2009 in his hometown of Elton England.  

Annie and Gracie are so excited because for the first {and probably only} time they will be flower girls!!  Judd and Kate met on "Survivor" in Fiji {she is a producer and he is the boat captain} and have worked together in China, Pulau, LA and are now in Gabon, South Africa filming the current season.  

They truly are the global couple and we are looking forward to meeting all of their cool and interesting international friends at the wedding next March. Check out their super fun, custom wedding website at www.juddandkate.com!
