Great Grandma Manell & Our Trip to St. George

We started off our 4th of July Weekend by heading down to St. George to see Gabbie's Great Grandma Manell. She is such an amazing lady and still going strong at 98 years old!

We had a great time visiting with Grandma, going to dinner and even getting some swimming in. Gabbie had a wonderful time and we did too! We love spending time with Grandma Manell and realize how lucky we are that Gabbie gets the change to know her.

The four generations spanning 97 years.

I love the interaction between Great Grandma and Gabbie here. In fact, most of the pictures with both of them, Great Grandma is more focused on Gabbie than anything else.

We even got to see Vicky's sister, Kay. We don't get to see his extended family much, so we were excited to be able to see Kay!

Gabbie and her Daddy! What a special relationship these two have. She absolutely adores him and I think the adoration is quite mutual!




Gabbie is also quite fond of her Nana and Papa Charles. They are so good to her and brought her some very special treasures from their trip to France, including this Minnie Mouse shirt and the cute white outfit she is wearing in the pics above.

I am so glad and grateful that Gabbie has such a great relationship with her grandparents and her only great grandparent. These are special memories for sure!
