Happy Happy Birthday Baby

Today is my Mom's birthday. She will hate that I posted this but she is my best friend so she deserves a birthday shout out. The way that I know for sure that she is my best friend, is that whenever I get news...great news, terrible news, any news at all frankly the first person I want to tell is my mom. She is my support, my rescuer when I'm in need, the person who I bounce ideas off of, the person who I go to when I need a laugh or advice or an escape or a good piece of chocolate. Man I love her! She is why I am the mother I am, the wife I am, the sister I am. And if I told her thank you every day till the day I die, it would be but a drop in the ocean of thanks I feel in my heart for my sweet, funny, smart, beautiful mother.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Sweet Baby Charlie

I have a beautiful new nephew named Charlie. He came yesterday and is spending a little time in the NICU but he's getting healthy and big, and as you can see he has a huge wonderful spirit. I can't even begin to explain how gorgeous he is or how much I love him. I can't wait until I can pick him up and love him to bits.

Guess Who's Home?

It's my cute cousin trent. T, this post is for you. I know how hard it was for you not to be there so I tried to get everything.

The best mothers day gift ever

This mothers day I wanted to get my beautiful mother something really special for mothers day so I called my multitalented friend Ashlee Barlow and we did a photoshoot of my favorite things. I think that Ash really captured some precious and beautiful stuff. Thanks so much Ash. They turned out to not only be a great present for my mom but pictures that I will forever treasure.

IT'S TRUE...
