She is 50!!!


This is my mom and Tracen, She does not look 50 does she? Today is her "BIG" birthday the big 50. My dad has alot of fun stuff planned for the day as many of you who know my dad can only imagine what he thought of. He loves to do stuff above and beyond but I think she will enjoy the day and be surprised. Just alittle about my mom, she is the most wonderful mom you could ask for she is the most hardworking, energetic, thoughtful, playful, kind, strong, spiritual, always puts other people before herself kind of a person. She will do anything you ask her to, and anything to make sure the grandkids are happy and entertained. She has been through alot in her life and has endured many many hard trials but because of her strong will to make everything ok she made it through every one of them with just small setbacks. She loves her family very much and wants everyone to be happy and she is always willing to make that happen. I hope that one day I can be half the woman that she is and do half the stuff that she does it seems like she never stops she is always going to make sure everyone has what they need. My dad is always telling her to relax but it does no good. I remember last year she had so many jobs going on in her life i was amazed she not only was a wife, mother, grandmother, but she was the Stake primary president, working full time at crandalls, and helping my dad run the Chicken Inn. I remember thinking to myself I cant beleive how she makes it through each day with so much to do. But of course she did. Thank goodness they sold the Chicken Inn that took alot of stress off of both of my parents. Anyway I could go on and on about my wonderful mother but I just want to tell her how much I love her and hope I can be like her someday. Happy Birthday Mom!!!
P.S. Stay tuned for pictures of her big day!
