Birthday Season For The Gaines

Ella Gaines isn’t the only one to celebrate a milestone Birthday this year. Joanna Gaines will be turning 50 on November 14th. Joanna and Chip very rarely share photos of the children, however, they occasionally share updates on the kids and what kind of parents they are.

Chip has shared that he is the more strict parent, while Joanna is the more laid-back parent. He said…

“I grew up in an environment that was pretty much ‘back by dark’ — [my parents] didn’t generally know what we were doing, and it was all good, clean fun. So I thought, ‘Oh, I’m gonna be a wild parent.’ And when I got to be a parent, I don’t know what it is about it … I feel a little bit like a drill sergeant sometimes. Some elements of my personality, as a parent, I’m not real crazy about.”

Joanna chimed in…

“It’s funny, I’m a little more laid back than I thought I’d be. [There are] certain things that I really care about, but I think the funny part, with Chip, is just the video games, the TV. That’s where he kinda gets a little strict. It’s, ‘You go play outside.'”

Chip and Joanna Gaines celebrate 21 years of marriage this year. They celebrate their wedding anniversary on May 31st. Joanna posted to Instagram “Twenty One Years. You’ve always had a way of taking a thought or a quiet dream I’ve tucked away, and helped me step into it and make it a reality.” She continued “What a journey, a wild and crazy (yet somehow peaceful) ride. So grateful to God for this life we get to share together.”  The pair are crazy about each other and fans love their dynamic.
