Snowman Gift Box

I purchased this from the Silhouette Store and made it up to put Amanda's Christmas money in...filled it with peppermints and money....I just hate not having a gift for her to unwrap when I give her money...

Enjoy!

The passing of Time....

When did my little man get so big....where did the time go...how did he grow so fast? I'd love to stop time.....just so I can hold him a little bit longer in my arms....I already notice he is getting reluctant to hug in front of his friends and I know that it's just him growing up but I still want him to stay like he is...when he used to grin from ear to ear and come running at me with open arms. I miss those days but love seeing him grow too...I guess I can't have it all but thank the Lord every day that I get to enjoy this little man that calls me granny!

  

Happy New Year!

My Beautiful Bella

My beautiful, sweet Bella.  I've never, ever taken a good picture of this adorable little girl.  She is not big on having her picture taken and usually just gives me a frown or a smirk.  But, not this time...this time, she gave me a smile that melted my heart.  She is such a charmer and has such a giving, wonderful heart.  I see her dad in so many of her expressions....This image is being printed and added to my family room wall.  I've had 4 frames just waiting for some good images.  I got one of all of them this time!  Now to get them printed and framed.  Don't forget to scroll down....posted twice today!

Jackson 2010

Not a great image but one heck of a great memory!  I just happened to be pointing the camera at him when he pulled these socks out of his stocking!  These were his exact words and the look on his face was priceless. I was still trying to adjust my camera settings and flash for the early morning light and didn't have my shutter speed high enough to stop the motion but I wouldn't delete this memory if my life depended on it.  It was just too funny.  Now to figure out a better layout for it!
