Just for Aunt Giselle



So to say we all have had a hard time with Aunt Giselle moving would be a slight understatement. Mia seems to have it the worst. I think the reason maybe that Giselle has brain-washed her to believing that she is her mother. Don't get me wrong, I love that they want their Aunt Giselle to be such a part of their lives. We send video footage and pictures on the cell phone bi-weekly to her. (I am so grateful for technology.) Last week Ellie got her back handspring down. First person we call...Giselle. Plus the cell phone video of it. Every morning Mia tells me "I can't wait til Christmas. Then I can see Giselle." Apparently I just need to wrap Giselle up and put her under the tree. So these pictures are for Giselle. I hope that the rest of you enjoy them and please note the time. 4:05 AM! That is the only time I have to blog. I couldn't sleep so I started some laundry and now I have one second for an update.




Where on earth does the time go? My big girl will be 9 in just one week. I am seriously freaked out with the notion. You know me the leader of the drama queens! Needles to say they keep me on the move! Gotta go...time to put in the next batch of clothes!

I was so happy to hear from you! Lets just plan the weddings now - I want my boys to marry your girls. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL! Did you take these pictures? They are so cute! Chris is building a Washington Mutual in sunny st george. He will be done in about 4 weeks, so lets get together and grab a bite to eat. That would be fun. Hope all is well, great to hear from you! :) PS - what the hell are you doing up at 4 in the morning? :) :)

Your girls are gorgeous! They do so well with pictues. Most days I only get crusty looks from Gabby. The pictures turned out great. What a dedicated blogger getting up so early to fill us all in ;)

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. You know how I feel about cute little (and big) girls all dressed up with their hair done! Jealous.

I love those girls and those dresses so much! I'm not surprised you were up washing clothes, was that the 15th ot 16th load of the day? But more importantly, was the kitchen floor mopped? Can't wait to see you!

I'm glad i got to see the pictures. I thought I would have to wait till they were framed on your wall to see them. Love the dresses. I wish I would have gotten some now. So next time you can't sleep come on over I'll show you where the key is. There's plenty to be done over here but I won't be losing any sleep over it!

A lovely cheese pizza just for me? I feel so honored! Although I guess maybe I should feel something else since I only got this blog from "brainwashing" Mia, haha. I am completely satisfied with the result of my brainwashing skills...just think what I could have done if I'd had more time with them :)

You could not have more beautiful children! Ellie looks SO grown up, Tess is of course ridiculously beautiful, and Mia is my baby. Can I please have them? Wouldn't they like to come live with me for a while?? At least one at a time you could send them down to stay or something.

Are these the photos Steve did? I want to hear all about how that went...you never said anything about it. I saw Katie Leavitt's pictures and thought they were great! Looks like the same background, so is that the BMDC picture fundraiser??

Anyway, I guess I don't need to write a novel on here. Thank you thank you for these pictures! The cell phone photos just don't do these Buti's (and beauties) justice. I love you all!

look how grown up they look just from the pictures at the top of your blog and those. It seems like they have grown up from when I left. I love the pictures they are beautiful!
P.S. when I went to pick Addey up from dance today Mrs. Leah said Addey told her that "Mrs. Billie Jo taught her all she knows"!!!!. (Well I hope she meant in dance because I know you did not teach her to be a smarty pants!) But Mrs. Leah said she must have taught you a lot, and then she moved her up a class!!

The Cox Family said...

Well I am going to just repeat what everyone has already said, because there truly is just one word to describe your girls---Beautiful!!! Love those dresses!

Staci said...

I think your girls look stunning. I saw Mia in Nursery on Sunday and she came up to me and said "Hi, my names Mia... What's yours?" It was co cute!

Sophie said...

Your girls are soo photogetic! I love them! Cute dresses too, I love the curls! Ellie is looking so much older than 8! See you soon (I think at Thanks Giving)! Miss you!
♥ ya!

Could I be any more proud to be the lucky Grandma of these beautiful girls? Each one is so gorgeous in her own way. I saw Ellie's little heart before anyone else--Tess is my little clone--and Mia, well Mia is Mia! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!! Love them all so much!
