Blessed Beyond Measure

  The moment you realize your kid stole your phone and took 500 pictures with it.  What a mess!

  I couldn't be more proud of my sweet sixteen year old girl.  She SOOOO deserves this adorable little car.  Thank you Stephen for taking such good care of us!

No question about his favorite Christmas present.  He asked for a blue cape from Nana and she came through big time.  He's on top of the world in his blue cape!  

 It isn't Christmas until Nana busts out the leaf blower indoors.  She did save the day by getting Nixon's birthday balloon down!

We always have so much fun at The Arboretum in Athens.  The weather today did NOT disappoint!  Thank you Lord for sunshine and love!  

  How is the beautiful, talented, smart, funny, sweet, amazing girl already 16?  Seriously, where does the time go?  I could not be more proud of this girl.  She works hard at everything she does, maintains an amazingly dark sense of humor, manages to take care of and be kind to all of us . . . all while writing two historical fiction novels that will someday ROCK this world.  I love you Nixie Pixie!

 I love our tradition of taking a picture the night before her birthday.  I sure do love this girl!

 

Since he refuses to believe in the Elf on the Shelf because it is creepy and not real,  (His words, not mine) he will just have to do the duty himself!    

 

 

  I feel so lucky in my new job.  And LOVE the view out of my window!

 I have no words for this picture.  My kid almost hung himself on a mini-blinds cord.  Geez.  Thank goodness for a VERY vigilant Nanny who takes such good care of him every single day.  Thank you Lord for watching out for my wild child.  

 

 Is it just me, or does he look WAY too old here?!  Time . . . slow down.
