Happy Birthday Sophie
Ok, so now I am really behind in my birthday tributes. Sophie's 7th birthday was July 12, 2009. We had such a fun time being with her on this special day. We had a great dinner. She wanted Orange Chicken like Panda Express makes. Her mom, Debi, found a recipe on the internet. It was fabulous, and Sophie was so excited. We all went to Idelwild, an amusement park in PA, and we had such a good time. Sophie is a wonderful little girl. So, here is your birthday tribute Sophie. I am so sorry it is late.
1. Sophie has such a cute personality. She is very inquisitive and comes up with the most insightful answers to lifes questions. She really thinks things through.
2. Sophie is an artist. Her Grandma McNeal teaches art to elementary and middle school teachers. Her Aunt Stephanie, is also a beautiful artist, and Debi also had art ablity. So, little Sophie is always creating something around the house. She loves to do art and is quite good at it.
3. Sophie is a great big sister. She is very helpful. She is very quiet and doesn't cause too many waves at the McNeal household.
4. Sophie loves to ride her bike, play with her friends, school, art, make things, eat chinese food, American girl dolls and their movies, art, her sisters, art, and she says the nicest prayers.
5. Sophie has a very funny sense of humor. She says the cutest things and she makes me laugh. I miss her funny little giggle.
6. Sophie loves her cousins, and her Aunts. She especially loves Sara and Josh. She misses them very much. She loves cousin Katelyn and they always have fun playing with each other.
7. Sophie loves her Mom and Dad and tries hard to show them her love. She is a darling little girl, and I am so glad she is our granddaughter. I wish we lived closer, because I would love to see her everyday. Why can't I be a little butterfly and fly over to her home everyday.
Blogspot is not allowing me to post pictures and so I will post again later some very cute pictures of our darling Sophie. Happy Late Birthday Post Sophie.

Kristie's Tribute
It was Kristie's birthday on July 10th. I won't tell you how old she was, because it dates me terribly. I hate being reminded how old I am. Ouch. Since this is my family blog, I can do this!
Kristie gave me many pictures that she told me I could use, and only those, but I squeaked a few others in, to make the point of HOW WONDERFUL SHE IS..... So, here is your Birthday Tribute.
1. Kristie is a great friend... she will go to extra lengths to do little things to tell people she cares about them.
2. Kristie use to love her thumb and her blanket, as you can see in the picture. Now she loves her HUSBAND very much. She is a great wife, and tries to show Bobby how much she cares.
3. Kristie loves her siblings. We use to call her "midget Mother." She is good to her brother sisters and sister in law. She very seldom misses a birthday phone call. She loves them all.
4. Kristie loves her dogs. She started out as a baby loving Dusty, and it has continued through the years. Now she has 2 golden retrievers - Duke and Kia. She is so good to them.
5. Kristie loves her Dad and Mom. She is a great daughter. She goes out of her way to buy little special gifts on our special days. She calls just to tell us she loves us.
6. Krisite loves her nieces and nephews. She has made wonderful hand knitted items to show them how much she loves them. She is always sending little birthday and christmas gifts to them. She tries to go out of her way to show that how much she cares.
7. Kristie loves her home and her yard. You can find her on any hot day in her pool.
8. Kristie loves to go and get a good manicure, pedicure and her hair done. She takes good care of herself and Bobby loves it.

12. Kristie enjoys a good movie. If I ever want to know about a movie, Kristie is the one to call.
13. She is an excellent piano player. She won symphony tryouts twice, which is a big feate especially since she won when she was only 14, she could of gone to Juliard in New York, but we didn't want her to go so far away.

21. Kristie loves her aunt, Gran and Oppa, and all of her other extended family members. She tries to show them how much she cares.
I will only make your 21 years old Kristie dear. I love you and so does all of your family. I know that your Grandma always says that one of her favorite memories of you is when you use to chase the BUBBERFLIES. We never look at a Butterfly that we don't think of you.
You took us on a life adventure of being able to play the piano very well at the early age of 7. I found you upstairs on the piano picking out the tune of one of my soaps. We went through lots of music competitions and you won everything. YOu took us on a wild ride of drill team, chior, plays, winning state DECCA - business, college scholarships galore, Jr. Miss, and many other fun filled high school activities. Now we have to go to Knitting conventions to see you, and we look forward to our family trips at Disneyland. We hate having you live so far away, however, we love having you in the backyard of DISNEYLAND. That is a bonus. Some of the grandkids think that Kristie lives in the castle with the princesses= remember Katelyn.
Have a HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE and I hope you liked it.
Love,
Mama
