Merry Christmas!

December 23, 2017

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas! 

Hi friends, I just wanted to pop in and share a quick post wishing you all a very Merry Christmas. Here are some photos taken by our very talented photographer friend, Craig Obrist. For the past 8 years, he has taken all of our family photos. 

These photos show me just how much the kids have grown in just one year. It is truly bittersweet! I look at them and am sad how time is quickly passing. Jules is gonna be as tall as me very soon! Then there are days I’m like, can you just go to college already?! Ha!

It’s a Christmas miracle. My son only made one crazy face this year. I still can’t believe it.

My heart is so full with these sweet kiddos. Being their mama is my biggest joy.


Doesn’t Jimmy look so good after surpassing his weight goal this year? He lost about 30 lbs and he’s doing great on maintenance mode. He’s turning 40 very soon and has never looked better. #hubbahubba

In February, we’ll be celebrating our 15 year anniversary!

If you need tips on how to have a successful photoshoot with kids, I wrote that post here. It’s gotten considerably easier taking photos with our kids since they’re older now. 

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!  

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

xoxo,

Let all that you do be done in Love. 1 Corinthians 16:14

Even though Jules isn’t that far, it’s still s Even though Jules isn’t that far, it’s still so different without her in the house. I miss her big giant hugs, random crazy dance moves, impromptu jams on the piano, base guitar, harmonica, and ukulele. It’s a mix of excitement, happiness and sadness and I’m letting myself feel it all. I catch myself getting weepy throughout the day but I feel a deep sense of gratitude for this new season and what she’ll get to experience. 
Aside from the rug, the girls styled their space and it turned out so cute. I love that she’s rooming with her friend from 1st grade. How can my child be in college?!😭😢

22 years on 2-22!! The years have truly flown by w 22 years on 2-22!! The years have truly flown by way too fast. Happy anniversary to the one who thinks I’m hilarious, gives me my daily morning/nightly back scratches, never makes me drive, and lets me take the last tasty bite of his food. If that’s not true love, Idk what is!Wahoooo ❤️ Thank you, Lord!
