Happy Birthday Danielle and Deanna

posted: July 19, 2008

These little girls - now young ladies - were so much a part of our lives for so many years -even though they do not live on our same street nor in our same city any more they will remain a part of our lives forever.


Sitting in the same rocking chairs in the same house (mine) just taken 17 years apart.

So you are having a birthday - and you will be 20 years old.
Happy Birthday Danielle and Deanna !

Deanna and Danielle - we kinda adopted them when they were born - their grandparents lived in Ft. Worth and Lubbock but there was only one house between their and ours so we saw them just about every day- they stayed with us, they slept with us, they ate with us. Such fun to watch them grow. They were in my daughter's wedding when they are 3 years old and one day and they did great walking down the aisle.

xDeanna will be going out of state in the fall to attend an art school while Danielle will remain in Texas. Thank goodness for computers and free calling on cell phones - this will be the first time they have been separated.

For their graduation from high school - but I gave it to them a year late - I made them each a scrapbook of all the pictures I had taken of them since they were born till last summer when they came for a visit.

Here are 3 of my favorite pictures I found of my kids and the girls when I was making the scrapbooks:

My older daughter and her now husband going to a Halloween part at the Bible Chair at UTA in Oct. 1989. xx

Marcie and the girls at Six Flags - a place I took them ever year from the time they were about 4 till they move when they were in - I think - the 6th. grade - This was Dec. 1992

My son and the girls after Arlington's 4th. of July parade - the BIG SAM Bell with them in July 1993. The girls were on the float for the "Mothers of Multiples" and my son was a bell guard for his high school.


And by the way - their Mothers birthday is today also SOOOO Happy Birthday

to all 3 of you!

Hi Mrs. Linda! What a sweet little post you made about our birthday (including mom's)! Thank you for your happy birthday wishes. We're enjoying the day immensely; Deanna got the day off from work and is appropriately lolling around the house doing nothing. Later we're going out to eat and celebrate, and mom's making a chocolate cake. Yum! And we hadn't seen the picture you took of us in the chairs until now! It's so cute to see the pictures side by side to compare. We really haven't changed at all, have we? And by the way, the quads are adorable! Anyway, thanks again, and give everyone our love!
