Happy Family Day to Gracie J!!!

Today marks on year that Grace has been a part of our family. What a difference a year makes.Grace was so very quiet when she was placed in Kerry's arms. So non responsive and quiet. I was pretty worried. Looking back I think she was just being still and taking everything in. It's just her way. She sits back and sees everything before deciding what she will do or say.
Now, she is a very active LOUD two and a half year old that is always on the go...
To celebrate, we went to a highly recommended Chinese restaurant downtown. It was locate din an old mill. Kind of an old style building with a Chinese theme. Pretty cool. The food....amazing!!! Gracie ate her weight in dumplings and Hope had a little bit of everything. Jake kind of grazed and Caleb loved his sweet and sour chicken. Kerry had cashew shrimp and I ordered street noodles. Although I ended up eating Hope's chicken on a stick...Yummy!! Sounds a little strange I know but oh man did it bring back memories of Xian and street food!!
