It Is a Very Special Day

8.28.2010

Happy Birthday to a very special girl.
8-28-08


I remember holding you when you first came home.


You grew too fast.


You started sitting up.


First two teeth.


Playing with Daddy's earphones


First birthday.


You weren't to sure about the beach, but you loved the pool.


All dressed up for Christmas.


You love to dance!


There are women that would pay lots of money to get your beautiful hair color including Grammy.


You welcomed your new baby sister this year on 2-2-10


You love your baby sister.


You just got back from your second trip to Italy to visit your
Grands over there. Two years old and been to Italy twice already. There are a lot
of adults that dream of going to Italy.

Now I can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks when you come to visit. I am going to take some new pictures of you and your sister so Grammy and Grandaddy will have some new pictures to fill frames with.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHELE


Her name is pronounced like Raquel Welch with a long A on the end because it is the Italian version of Rachel. Mom is Italian.


Sorry for the quality of some of the photos.They were sent to my email.

Have a super day and y'all come back now,

KIM

    Oh, congrats Kim! What a sweetheart. They always grow up way too fast. If they could only stay little till their Carter's wore out.;)

    So cute! I want some of those and I want to go to Italy too! I actually am going next month. A friend of ours turns 60 and we are all loading up on a bus and heading to Italy, over an hour away, Italy,TEXAS that is. He is from Italy the real one. We all can't get there so I guess this will be the next best thing.

    What a sweet little face. Happy Birthday Rachele. I am used to the pronunciation as I too am Italian and have many relatives with the e at the end that sounds like an a! Lucky little girl to be a world traveler. My mom is actually there right now. How I wish I could have gone back with her. Do they live far away? That would be the hardest part of being a grandmother!
