Birthday Girls

Hey All, This is Charity blogging!
I just want to say thank you for all of the birthday gifts and wishes.
Aunt Juliet, Aunt Louise and Colleen thank you sooo much for the purse.
It was even better than I remembered!

Aunt Laurie threw a little get together for all of the June Birthday Girls along with all of the Dad's for Father's Day.

Everyone had a blast! I hope that you enjoy this post. Here are some pictures from that day!

South Haven Mother/Daughter Banquet

Last week South Haven held its annual Mother/Daughter Banquet. You will notice that the Gagliano Family was a little sparse. Naomi and family were out of town as well as Sarah(her girls were with Aunt Laurie).
Our Speaker for the night was Mrs. Debbie Woodard.
She and her husband are missionaries to England and are sent out from our church. She is a grandmother of four and spoke about dealing with being away from her children and grandchildren and still being a good and godly influence on her family. Her mother, a faithful member of our church was named Mother of the Year. If you can't tell by the pictures we had a Hawaiian themed night :)

I thank the Lord for the Father He has given me. To be able to grow up with one of the greatest examples of a hard worker of someone with so much good character and integrity, I am truly blessed. Someone once told us that our parents were the exception, that they went far beyond what was expected of them. Dad, just wanted to let you know that I love you and think your the greatest.

My Hero
Playing games and laughing
Flying through the air
Always knowing he was there
Never tired of listening
Showing he always cared
Pushing me, but only for my good
Always knowing that I could
Cheering for me and making me glad
Thankful that I'll always have
The Best and Greatest Dad!

Love ya,
Colleen
