'Tis the Season

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Hope everyone had a fabulous time with family and friends celebrating the birth of our savior Jesus Christ.

We had a very busy, but very nice Christmas break. Christmas Eve we spent with my Mom and grandparents for Candlelight Service at Katy 1st Baptist Church. It was a beautiful service with great hymns and a great message to all. Christmas Day, we headed to my Aunt's in Humble, TX then back to Katy to James' grandparents, and then Aunt Kat's.

Anyway, I just wanted to share a few pictures with you all of Braden's very 1st Christmas! He did so well opening (with help) his gifts from Mommy & Daddy, and Santa of course!

ENJOY!

Our Family Photos

Hi everyone! How was your Thanksgiving?!?!? I hope you all had a wonderful time with your families and loved ones!

Well, I had been wanting to take some 3 month old pictures of Braden and while at it, take some family portraits for Christmas! I didn't really want to go to a store to take them, so I looked around for a local photographer that didn't cost an arm and a leg, but also would do a fabulous job! I was introduced to Lyndsay, which happens to know my husband from their High School days believe it or not! Anyway, she has started to transform her hobby into a profession, and she is absolutely wonderful!

So, here are some of them.... You be the judge!!

Tummy Time!

I'm such a proud Mommy! Braden at 12 weeks old!

Today I Am Thankful For....

FRIDAY!!!!

I am missing my little boy so much today and everyday for that matter! I catch myself having to look at a picture of him just to get me through my work days! When I get him home I just hold him and I don't let go or put him down for forever!! So, as I look at his picture for the millionth time today, I think to myself...

"Today I am thankful for Friday, for I am able to spend my entire weekend being with my baby and my husband"

Friday Thanks...

20 days until Thanksgiving.... What are you thankful for today?

Due to the horrible happenings in Ft Hood yesterday, I just have to express how thankful I am for our armed forces! It can be a terrible world out there if we let it and they fight so hard for our freedom. It can affect them in so many ways! Please say a little prayer for the families who have lost their loved ones in Killeen, Texas.

In the meantime, my thanks goes out to my brother Kris, a marine, for he too did his time in Iraq! I am thankful that he did his job and was able to come home safely to our family!

Thankful Thursday

A friend of mine has encouraged everyone to post something you are thankful for every day up until Thanksgiving this month. I think this is a wonderful idea! So, join with us and let us remember what Thanksgiving is really about!

I am thankful for such a great Mom!
She would do anything for her awesome daughter, and vice versa!
