Favored & Blessed: November 2007

A look back to yesterday...

I took these pictures of Anna in the dress that I wore at my parents wedding when I was the same age. I had done the same with Grace a few years ago too but, Anna resembles me much more. Hard to imagine that I was once that small. Looking at Anna sometimes is like looking into a mirror and seeing the years just fade away.

Indian Summer fun

We had some fun while enjoying one of the last few nice and warm days of the year.

Micah's 3rd Birthday

Micah turned three on September 24th. Wow! It's gone so fast! My baby boy is getting to be such a little man (sniff!). He's grown a lot this past year, in every way. He loves to be outside, he enjoys spending time at home, he loves his sisters, and he has really been into "Larry Boy" (from VeggieTales fame) and anything from the "Cars" movie. In fact, he had a "Cars" themed party this year. He loves to help Mom & Dad around the house and he's such a sweet, cheerful, and fun-loving bundle of energy. He's definately all boy - and we love him!

With one of his new gifts - a "Larry Boy"!

Our trip to Colorado...

Late September Grace and I went to Colorado for a few days for my cousin Jerry's wedding. I was a fast and rather exhausting trip, but totally worth it! It was especially exciting for Grace as she was the flower girl in the wedding and it was her first time on an airplane! She had been looking forward to the wedding for months and, had great fun dressing up like a "princess." She was too cute! Unfortunately, Daddy, Micah, and Anna weren't able to make the trip, but we had a great time "just us girls!" It was so nice to be able to visit with family and friends that we don't get to see very often and, the wedding was beautiful too!
