Our photo shots and spa day.

Here are just some of the 96 shots that were taken. The girls held up well, considering. After a long day of picture taking mom and I enjoyed a wonderful day at the spa yesterday. Let me tell you that was much needed. A one hour massage, with a one hour facial, followed with lunch and a pedicure and manicure... we felt like queens. I am glad my mom retired so I could buy her the gift certificate and could go along with her..:)

Thinking of food I am sure!!

All dressed up....:)

Decorating..

Decorating for Christmas... it is an annual tradition that my dad used to hold me up and put the angel on the tree, so of course we started it with Aleeza. This was her third time doing this. She had so much fun dragging out all the decorations. Of course Livvy didn't know what was going on but just stared at the lights.. it was cute!

George's Club with friends

My good friend Alysia came down for Thanksgiving to visit her parents. It was so good to see her and the kids. No we are not in competition but we are both pregnant with number three and very excited. TRUST ME.... it is no competition... I wish 15 upon her and not me..:) love ya!!! Anyway... Ryker and Aleeza clearly get along great and Leila loved Olivia. We had a great time at George's club and visiting with each other... hopefully the kids will be good friends in college also...:) Hey we could be related one day...:)

Much to be Thankful for....

Eating up....:)

This holiday season we have so much to be thankful for. I have a wonderful husband who provides so well for this family. He works so hard to make ends meet. He is amazing! I have two wonderful daughters who bring joy to my life every day. Most importantly to me is my salvation. How I have been reminded of this time and time again over the past few months. The messages at church have been so convicting and directed directly at me. The Lord is SO GOOD to us. We can't complain about anything, although at times we feel like it, we have nothing to complain about! Thanksgiving day was spent with my parents and our good friends the Evans. We had a wonderful time together. The food was great!!! Many leftovers!
