The Polonesian Cultural Center

This was an awesome day!  The Center was very nice, the river show was great, each of the villiages were fun but the best part was the wonderful Prime Rib buffet dinner and the evening show, "The Breathe of Life".

Happy Birthday to a very much loved daughter!!
Christy:
Beautiful inside and out!
Thoughtful...She really cares about people and is very loving and kind in everything she does. 
Sensitive...She worries about other people's feelings and never likes to see someone upset or sad.  If she thinks she has hurt your feelings or done something wrong she will make sure she makes it up...I have found more than one note on my pillow telling me that she is sorry about saying something to me.
Loving and Kind...in all she says and does!
Fun...Always a lot of fun...she always makes things more fun!
Spiritual...She is very close to her Heavenly Father and always tries to follow his example in living her life.  Spirituality is a big part of her life.  She has always tried to do what is right.
Hardworking...in everything she does...school, work etc.
Smart...Talented...Athletic...Fit...Helpful...and loved by All!
I don't know why we were so lucky to get a daughter like Christy but we were and we feel very blessed.  From the minute I found out that I was pregnant with her I was so excited and happy!  We looked forward to having her join our family.  The  moment we saw her with her little round face and dimple we knew she was a very special  girl. From the time she was very little until now people comment on how beautiful she is.  She is beautiful...not just on the outside but on the inside too which is the best part!  She can do no wrong in her father's eye.  He adores her.  We are so proud of the woman she has become.  She has done many good things in her life so far and we know that there are great things to come!  We love you Christy!!


Christy through the Years!
















Happy Birthday!!
