Grammy K's Birthday!!

I just wanted to wish my incredible Mother-in-Law a very Happy Birthday!! This woman is very difficult to describe.....words just aren't adequate to capture her countless qualities and characteristics that endear her to soooooo many people. In short she is the world's kindest, most selfless, beautiful, smart, creative, extra-mile going, thoughtful, tireless, understanding, chef extraordinaire, gardening expert, supportive, stylish energizer bunny Grandma! Like I said, words don't cut it ;) I am so grateful for this woman who raised the man of my dreams and taught him to be an honest, trustworthy, hard-working, life loving person. She has been amazing with Maci and to be honest has given me a complex as a mother..... Besides my own Mom, she is the only person Maci adores and prefers over me..... She loves her and cares for her so well :)
She is such a trooper! She has not only been a support to Tanner and I while building "the company" but she has participated in the Wasatch Back Relay ALL 5 years!! Who else has a Mother-in-law that will stay up for 24 hours and cheer you on while you cry and sweat then get out of a stinky, smelly old van and run it herself!?!


She even gives Maci treats and let's her be messy while trying new foods...... a virtue I rarely possess.

We love you so much. You are an inspiration to your Family, Friends, Neighbors and so many more. Happy Birthday Kristen!! We are thinking of you and hope you get the rest/break/celebration you deserve !
