Y’all, it’s official!!

Y’all, it’s official!!!!!  No longer a teenager and officially past all the stereotypes that come along with that title, Grace turns 20 today!!!! :D Of course, Grace was born ready to conquer the world and never did fit into the “teenager” stereotype anyway. She was dubbed the “world’s most intelligent baby!” at birth, at 2 she had conquered coloring in the lines, when she was 6 she was sculpting the cutest clay miniatures, by 10 she took it upon herself to pick up our mom’s point-and-shoot and outgrown clothing items to sell on ebay[which went over famously!], and then traded in the ebay business for a bootie[<-baby shoes] factory at 14. ;) God has definitely gifted her with hyper artistic entrepreneurialism . ;) But don’t let her résumé fool you, she’s extremely domestic too! Let’s just say her luscious homemade chocolate bunt cake[from scratch!!!!] will leave you wondering if there is anything she can’t do….! ;) Besides bootie designing and bunt making, Grace can be found enjoying long walks[barefoot mind you, ’cause shes all about earthing ;], keeping up with business social networking & marketing, and documenting our life via her iphone. ;) Let’s just say there has been quite a life wrapped up into these 20 years AND, Lord willing, she has much more to live!! I am so thankful the Lord has given us Grace and super excited to see what the future holds as He directs her steps. AND TODAY is her BIRTHDAY[Que virtual confetti and applause]!!!! Happy birthday to my most beautiful(and hardest working) 20 year old sister!! May the years to come be fuller than those which have passed and may all your bunt cakes be delightfully scrumptious! ;)

“May He grant you according to your heart’s desire,
And fulfill all your purpose.”
Psalm 20:4

So, y’all are most likely wondering why in the world I chose office[excuse mess, work in progress! ;] photos for her birthday post!?!! Well, you see, we have had quite an extreme[which might be putting it lightly ;] load of work this past week and Grace kindly requested we postpone birthday photos until she is able to get a solid 8 hours of sleep in and curl her hair! So, she will have 2 posts, one with glamorized photos at a later date! Until then, leave a “Happy Birthday” comment below and make her day! :) :)

“Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.”
Proverbs 31:30-31
