Sweet Sixteen!!!!!

It seems like just last week that Rick and I brought Gabriela home from Cottonwood Hospital to our townhome in Sugarhouse.  It's hard to believe that 16 years have gone by since then.  Gabriela Mae Wardle was born March 27th, 1996.  She came into the world 10 days before her due date of April 6th.  She has been such a great helper ever since she was little.  She has helped lots with her 4 brothers who came after her.  Now that she is a licensed driver, she helps even more!  Here's a look back at some of her past birthdays and her most recent celebration of turning 16!!!
