 Two sweet, sweet girls. I am so blessed to have them in my life. Thankful to know them now. <3
 Dear friends, beautiful ladies. Inside and out.
Soooooooo many wonderful moments. 
So glad and happy for this new time in life for Tabby and Tyler!

Pray for one another in what you're working towards in life. Big and little. Never underestimate the power of prayer. The help that you can to be to someone through prayer. 

Love and PRAYERS to you all. <3 


Roundhouse 2012 and GA weekend!

My sweet little Hannah and Ethan and John at Sunday morning Bible class at Roundhouse. It was a wonderful way to start off the week. It is such a blessing to have so many sweet kiddos all around at RH. So many adorable hugs and kisses and smiles and giggles. Many times of noticing the small things because of the small people I was with. So precious!
MY SISTERS!! Are they not the cutest?! Ohhhhh. I am so happy to have these two in my life!
We went out for birthday lunches for Daddy and Moma on Sunday. That time together was one of my very favorite parts of Roundhouse this year... Oh, I do so miss being with my family all the time. SO many great memories... but many, many great memories have been made since moving and going back home with them, too.
Alyssa, Abigail. Kara, Mary Esther, Christina, Hannah... We are the 3 sets of 12-years-younger twins. :)
I had such wonderful times with many little darlings at Roundhouse. Having Madison, Hallie, and Lucy there... that was just the best. I am thankful for how much closer we have become over the past couple years... They are sweethearts and so so funny!!
The messy, adorable, always in want of a swing, cuddle, gum, and lip gloss HALLIE ANN!
This beautiful baby. I LOVE HER. :) And just sayin'... I'm glad she likes me.
Roundhouse is beautiful. And it is so encouraging. It's a time to focus on the GOOD in life. To be surrounded by Christians who LOVE the Lord. To not see immodesty, to not hear bad words, to have fun just hanging out all together.
One of my favorite places at ROUNDHOUSE!!!
Look how lovely this is!!!! I love this time of year and being outside so much! There was a lot of rain on a couple days, but there's always a way to make it work out anyway. It is just so much fun to be there together. I loved the study on numbers... fun little questions throughout the week and neat crafts and activities. Bible bowl was amazing! It's always neat to see all the little kiddos learning so much through the week.
Out singing times and lessons in the morning and night are some of my very favorite things!!! This is the YAB... where we spend a lot of time. :)
Beauuuuuuuuuutiful night at ROUNDHOUSE. To God be the glory! GREAT THINGS HE HATH DONE!

The week went by... and THEN I went home to see my Duluth.

Being back with my sweethearts... OH! Happpppiness. And being with my 
MOMMY
DADDY 
and SISTAAAAAS... OH! It was amazing!! =D 
That weekend was the best part of being gone... BUT the very best part of the whole trip was coming home. Landing in Missouri to hug my Aunt, then to meet up with my sweethearts, cousins, and another aunt... OH! It was the BEST DAY EVER!!!!!

A little bit of everything to end Septemeber...

What can I say... I LOVE this girl. And I love to be goofy. 
And when we get to do that TOGETHER. 
BOOOOOO YAAAAAAAAA!
My sweet babies doing school. They are coming along so well, it is a lot of fun!!! So, so many memories of my mommy and sisters while I do school with the darlings. What a fun thing to have been homeschooled and to now homeschool. The joy of it all just keeps on going!
Who wouldn't want to just spend the day with these darlings?! Are they not the most adorable things you've ever seen?! They bless my world every moment we're together. I could not get better training for the kiddos I hope to have down the road. God is so good.
One of the fun things about our August and September months have been going to see our Lyssa Girl play high school softball! The time to cheer her on, to be outside, to learn more about the game, to eat fruit snacks, to beat up on Bean... I mean... um... PLAY with Bean... and of course, for everyone to drink Aunt Tammy's drink... :) It's been great. 
This is me. Raising my hand. Because. THESE are my kiddos. And my aunt. And I am SO thankful that they are... These three make me laugh, smile, give me fantastic hugs, and are crrrrrrrazzzzzy awesome to be around. <3
GO LYSSA!!! YAY 1. 1!!! THAT'S OUR GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!
...Yeah, we're so not embarrassing at the field...
And WHY wouldn't you wanna be at the game when it looks like THIS outside?! SO lovely! 
My monkey. Oh, my sweet, crazy, funny, beautiful, silly girl... 

I am tellin' you...
"Can't get enough of this everyday LOVE!"
