"a party or two!"

So, this past Saturday, Jessica and I attended a birthday party for a young girl who has grown up into such a young lady! It was a simply lovely party and we had a marvelous time exchanging stories of our younger days!
Below is a picture my dad took of me...yeah, the colours clash, but it was incredibly GORGEOUS outside!! So, I peeled potatoes out on the deck! =)

The table was set with beautiful flowers!And of course the food was overflowing!The birthday girl and her dear friend!How many girls can one fit on a couch?Mrs. Ryken started the party out with a lovely devotion! Very encouraging to all...Okay, so I couldn't help but get some pictures of those delicious flowers!Art

Happy girls!

And the Birthday girl, herself! <3

Sharing some of the letters a bunch of people wrote to Jesi.

Happy Birthday, Jesi! I pray you had a brilliant time!

And now for our Belated Valentine's Day party! Jessica, Marie Michelle, and I made our way to the Sanford house for a "girls" night! We sure did have a grand time! Although the weather had a turn on us and became pretty chilly....which equals not fun! But, we made up for it with an umbrella! =)

Mirror pictures and so much fun! =)

Next morning...yes, I am extremely tired as of right now. But I wouldn't have traded this sweet time I spent with them for anything!


Meli lookin' ever so cute! <3
"I'm singing in the rain, just singing in the rain!"

I'm truly blessed by so many incredibly amazing friends that I don't deserve!

<3
Yes, we found yet another mirror!

And here is our last group picture including Becca, who graciously came outside in the rain and freezing cold weather to take a few pictures of us!

And thus ends my so called post of our late randomness! I sure hope it wasn't a bore to y'all! Next post should be up sooner or later...*shrugs* Still trying to decide what it's going to be about! *laughs*

Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?!? {insert grin}

“This Is The Life...”

Hey y’all! Yes, it’s been quite a long time since I’ve posted on here! Lots of living life, raising not one but TWO kids! Four years of marriage, learning how to handle my own household, loads and LOADS of laundry and dishes! Life is good and I’m ever grateful that the Lord has given me so many days to learn and draw closer to Him! This year I’ve felt like I’ve drawn closer to God. It’s amazing what He does to shake up our lives in order to do so! Anyhow, like I said! I have not one child but two precious little ones! Oswin Katarina is such an amazing, most imaginative and spunky three year old! Life with her is NEVER dull! Winston Taylor is my giant boy full of energy, but ever so snugly one and a half year old! These two keep me on my toes but I wouldn’t ask for better kids! They’re ever so polite! If you sneeze they’ll say bless you then you’re welcome after you say thank you! But make sure you say thank you or they’ll remind you to do so! They say please when they ask for thi...

Hey y’all!! My fellow friends who enjoy a peek into our life! :-) These weeks seem to be flying by and it’s hard to remember what has happened and when because it’s like a flash! One day it’s here....the next day GONE! About a week ago we got to celebrate a little firefly turning one!! It’s amazing to watch my nieces and nephews grow up and even more awesome to see them grow up side by side with my babies! Like I said, time is just zooming by! My nieces party was so fun and filled with such happy memories!! And she’s such a doll anyhow! Well, our weeks have been filled to the brim with decluttering our house, cleaning the house, raising our kids, bible readings, documentaries, and just all around craziness!! I tried to take the kids out to the zoo for it’s free day but the humidity was SO BAD Oswin was begging to go home within 5 minutes of being there! I’m praying we’re able to take them out to the Saint Louis zoo very soon!! I’m positive they’d LOVE it!! Plus,...

Hey yall!! So about a week ago I got the most wonderful news (yet again!! Never gets old) that I became an aunt again!! My Wonder Woman of a sister-in-law brought my sweet little niece into this world after a long 39 hr labor. Definitely Wonder Woman if you ask me! :-) This past Wednesday we got the privilege of meeting the little thing in pink!! Anyhow! Without further ado....below are some pictures from that night!! Hope y’all enjoy! This past Sunday we got an even greater privilege of witnessing our niece get baptized into the kingdom of Christ!! Made me tear up a little!! Remembering the promises we made when we did the same and promising to come together as a body of Christ to be there for her too!  Well, I hope y’all enjoyed the pictures!!! They seriously don’t do enough justice!! She’s just the sweetest and cutest doll baby!! Anyhow, I’ll close now as I think up another blog post of my family’s life!! Y’all come back now, ya hear?!? :-)
