My BIG Day

Good morning all
Well it is finally here my BIG day the day I am officially OLD my 50th Birthday.
As I look back at my years on this earth ... I used to be a spit fire I was wild, free spirited and a happy go lucky person. I got married at 16 yrs old to my Best Friend Bill we had been together since I was 13yrs old. ( And yes we are still together 34 yrs ). I had both my kids by 19yrs old.
Since I was so young being married and having kids I didn't have to many friends...So my Sister and I became BEST FRIENDS and let me tell you I don't know where I would be today with out her. I love you Bonnie thanks for always being there for me!
My 2 kids have blessed me with 2 of the worlds most Beautiful, smart loving Grand Daughters in the world.....My Daughter Tabatha gave me my 1st Courtney she is 6 now and they live with us that's why you see me scrapping her all the time.
My Son Bob blessed me with my 2nd Lily she will be 5 in May...I don't see her as much as I would love to but she is such a sweetie She has a smile that just touches your heart!
I have 3 Brothers & a Sister , I lost my Dad 6 yrs ago I am thankful I still have my Mom she turns 83 this year God Bless her.
I am thankful that my Hubby has a good job ( helps support my creative habit )...lol
a roof over my head , a loving Family And I LOVE be a Grammy!
I am thankful I got to go to Disney as much as I did...I LOVE DISNEY!
I think I will always be a KID at heart.
As I look back threw all the ups and downs and I had a lot of downs...I wouldn't change one glorious second!
I might be a little ( ok a lot ) fatter, a little more cranky and slower but I made it to 50!
I am now in to scrapping & card making and I have made some of the most amazing FRIENDS
So thank you LORD for blessing me with such a WONDERFUL LIFE
Thanks to all that stop by my little piece of the web and sharing a little love along the way.
Wanda
I GIVE ALL THE GLORY TO GOD

  9. Happy Birthday, Wanda! Praying your year is showered with blessings. I'm almost done with my year long project of organizing 30 years of photos and will be looking through your layouts for inspiration as my first projects will be my disney vacations. I'll be joining you at the half-century mark in September. ((hugs))
