Happy Birthday, Joanna! Happy Independence Day, USA!

I have posted about Joanna and her birthday a few times.  You can look back at some memories here.


You can see in those memories that I love the photo of Joanna at about 1 year old.

Gene and I cannot say enough good things about Joanna.  She has watched out for us ... all of us since she was small.  She is the adult in our family.  She is smart, caring and a loving person.  She has a great birthday date, too!

Jo, Jennie, Joanna

Joanna

Jo, Gene, Joanna

Joanna and Larry will be here today for her birthday.  We won't celebrate her day with cake and all until next weekend.  Jennie and Brandon can't be here.  It is getting to be a habit to celebrate birthdays whenever we can.  A good part of that is the celebrations are extended. 

Happy Birthday to Cody and Jerry!  Nephews that celebrate today as well.

Happy Birthday to the USA!! I'm proud to be an American!
