Two True Blessings

"A friend is one who strengthens you with prayers, blesses you with love and encourages you with hope."

My family tree may say that I do not have 2 sisters, but my heart knows the truth.

I love you girls!

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary to the love of my life, still after 7 years, who would have thought it? :) You are a wonderful husband and an amazing father and I am looking forward to growing old with you! I love you, Gregg!

A good spot

With both of the girls we are in a good spot. Anne is at the perfect age. Sitting but not crawling. She loves to be held and is not yet at the age where she wants to squirm away from you and crawl, (however I fear the end is soon as she is scooting). And Mary Kathryn is self sufficient but still young and innocent enough to look at her parents with wide eyed amazement when they point out Christmas lights. Children truly are a gift from God and Gregg and I are so blessed.

Christa's Wedding!

On Nov. 11th Christa and Mark got married and everything was amazing. She took such care in every detail. It meant so much to Gregg and I to be a part of this special day. And our whole trip to Florida was great fun! Blessings and love to Christa and Mark!
