….to yours. Merry Christmas. Wishing you His joy today and always. And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” — Luke 2:10-11
a birthday and a mustache.
This was supposed to be a Sunday Snapshot. In which case it would be a few days late. Or several days early, depending on how you look at it. Either way, it’s a good one. Because my baby, my last baby-by-birth, just turned 12. And that crazy business calls for a party… and a cake… and lots and lots of… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: Vivienne turns 6
My sweet little peanut is now 6. I’m still not sure how that happened. Her birthday list was short this year. Which is always a good thing. A long list can mean a lot of disappointment. And even better than a short list, I could actually produce the first thing on her list relatively painlessly. Or, at least, Victoria could…. Read More
Sunday Snapshot: Poppy’s party
It was all Victoria’s fault. She googled, pinterested and you-tubed her way to dreaming up a pink and purple ombre cake for Poppy. And a handmade crown to boot. Thankfully, we actually pulled it off. Victoria baked and frosted. I cut and sewed. And Poppy beamed. She thought the presents were okay, too. I’d better start planning now. Vivienne’s birthday… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: the graduate
Technically, he graduated in May. The official ceremony was in June. But, to be honest, I’m just grateful July didn’t end before I actually got some pictures of him. The graduate. He graduated with a 3.4. And the last time he got into any trouble at school was in 8th grade for a food fight. Which is more than I… Read More
behind
My birthday was 8 days ago. Chris’ was 11 days ago. And I’m just getting around to editing and posting a few pictures. I admit it… I’m behind. But it’s a good behind. A happy behind. *if you’re thinking what I’m thinking when reading “a happy behind” then stop that right now. I’ve been playing a bunch with my kids…. Read More
happy birthday
to me. Celebrating being one year older (is that not a blazing oxymoron?) with a Cherry Garcia ice cream sandwich. Cherry Garcia because, if you’re gonna make a homemade ice cream sandwich, you may as well go all out. Am I right? P.S. Have loved reading all the sweet birthday wishes. Thanks for making this one-year-older lady smile.
Sunday Snapshot: nine
She’s nine now. Home from China as an 11 month old, Isabelle has been surrounded by her forever family for all of her nine birthdays. When this very special day arrives each year, we celebrate even more than her birthday. We celebrate that, nine years ago, God first laid adoption on our hearts. First, on Chris’ heart. Then mine soon… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: celebrating
On Monday Asher turned 14. On Wednesday Zach graduated from high school. On Thursday all my kiddos were officially under one roof again. And tomorrow is Father’s Day. Needless to say, there’s been a lot of celebrating going on around here. More pictures soon. When you’re ready to play along, be sure to visit here for the full scoop. To… Read More
one year with Tallula
A year. A whole, entire year. I looked back and reread few of my favorite posts from our China trip, because it’s honestly hard for me to believe it’s been that long since… Tallula day and Tallula day video. Getting to know a bit about Tallula. Taking pictures of Tallula in her Chinese silks on Shamian Island. And finally, on… Read More
