In November I took baptism pictures for this little friend of Micah's. She is such a beautiful girl inside and out. She was awesome to hold up in the cold so we could get these pictures.
Josie Mae was the student of the month at her preschool. I loved this pumpkin on my neighbors porch, I just had to take her picture with it. She is indeed very loved!
Since I met this amazing woman when I moved here, I had a desire to know her. She exuberates happiness! This pessimistic realist needs her! I get to see her every Friday for about three hours now, since she got me a job in the day care at our local gym. She is the best part of the job by far. Yes, I get the perk of working out at the gym, which is nice, but I actually LIKE and ENJOY Ange! She is FABULOUS and a GOD send!
Here is her beautiful family. We took some pics back in November!
I got to go to TOFW with these Amazing women! It was a huge blessing, just getting to be with them and the inspired messages we heard!
My dad did a combined showing of his Indian stuff to Noah and Micah's classes. The kids love it when he does this. He enjoys it quite a bit too!
My beautiful Brenley and her family came for a visit. We always love to see them. They are such great examples of faith and dedication to the gospel.
These two seemed to like each other a lot! Jo Mae is still talking about him.
Thanksgiving was wonderful. I got the best of both worlds. My parents with John's family! This has indeed happened for the last 3 years. I am so glad our families get a long so well. Thanks to Dan and Anne for hosting! We love you guys so much!
This is my kids doing a funny game their aunt provided! The TURKEY walk was a big hit!
This was a fun little work party we got to go to because I took some business pictures for a friends mom. This is Josie's bestest little friend Belle! I wish all my kids had a friend like Belle is to Jo! They love seeing each other!
Josie was adorable with Santa Clause. I forget she is still little and has amazing faith he exists! She got as excited to see him as she did about seeing the Disney Princesses at Disneyland. When she got off his lap, she ran to Belle and said, "Santa Claus is REAL Belle!" I t surprised me, and kind of broke my heart. I haven't really fostered the idea of Santa Claus for her!
Here comes my Noah! He has filled our Christmas season with a lot of dancing. Noah takes ballroom in a class that is offered before school. Lots of kids in our neighborhood do, they seem to really enjoy it. I know Noah does. He loves to perform! I wonder who he got that from? This is him and his cute partner Abby. She is our neighbor and I adore her. I think Noah was lucky to get her as his partner.
This is up til recently. I have not been a good blogger lately. Even less better at being grateful. I have hit a snag lately, and am trying to draw myself out. Remind myself that God needs me to have a open heart. This is the season of giving and peace. I am personally trying to recommit myself to do and find both. Thanks for your patience with me!
