Real, Fake and Candy trees!
We're a real family gone fake. I'm talking Christmas trees here. I have fond memories of real trees growing up. I always wanted the biggest tree on the lot and my dad usually let me get the one I wanted-as long as it wasn't too outrageously priced.So Mike and I always bought real trees together, all through college and then up until the year Ainsley was born, that was the year I'd had enough... You see we had already purchased our real tree but the bottom of it still had to be cut down some to fit into the base a little bit better, something Mike said he would do. Well I was becoming impatient

Turkey Day 2009
This year we had Grandma and Grandpa visit us for Thanksgiving! We had a wonderful dinner and we have so much to be thankful for this year!! Looking back over the year I think the thing that stands out most for me is being thankful for Bennett's repaired heart. I am reminded of it each and every day when I see his scar.

Christmas Card Pics- The Outtakes!
I know many of you have seen some of the Christmas pics I took the other weekend but I thought I'd share some of the outtakes! As many of you know, attempting to take pictures of your children is not always the easiest, most pleasant thing to do, well unless you're a professional...which I am not. I d

Giving Thanks For The Unexpected...
As Thanksgiving approaches, naturally I've been thinking about what I am thankful for. Of course I am thankful for good health for me and my family and good health for my extended family. I am thankful for Mike's job, thankful for the opportunities we've had with his job. I'm thankful for Mike and for God putting him in my life-honestly, I don't think anyone else could put up with me-Ha! And I'm thankful for my sweet, sweet children. As I sit here and think about each of my children I can honestly say I am thankful for every inch of their little bodies, inside and out. But when it comes to Bennett, I ask myself am I thankful for that extra chromosome?
