Daddy Daughter Dance 2019

Emerson woke up wondering why the dance couldn't be in the morning. I attempted to explain why it was at night but nothing convinced her, she was convinced morning was simply a better time. 
From the moment we pulled in the garage she was ready to "get ready." We obsessed over her dress, curled her hair and curled it some more and then put on some lipstick and anxiously waited on her daddy. He came home and she melted. He knows her well, we aren't flower people, but we love candy and that is just what he brought her! Lucky to have a hubby who gives us what we like not what others think we need! 
Walker began getting ready and he let Emerson pick out his tie. She opted for the singing Christmas tie, but decided the pink tie matched her dress a little more! HA! One they were both ready it was momma's turn for some pictures! It was freezing cold but we managed to get a couple keepers and I just loved watching them love one another as I took their pictures. You can look at each shot and see that with out a doubt these two love one another. I pray she finds a man, when she is much older (ha), that looks at her the way her daddy does. 


























Happy Love day to my LOVES

Not sure I have adequate words to express my love for my babies and hubby. We love to love at our house and we chose to celebrate when others celebrate something as wonderful as love! It may be a silly holiday but it is a great excuse to be together and let others know how much you love them, not with fancy gifts but with words, quality time and memories.  This year we chose a night at home with heart shape pizzas and peanut butter and nutella stuffed cookies. 
The kids really enjoyed reading their hearts each morning, visibly telling them why we love them. Sweet Emerson would let me know she needed more so's and more exclamation marks on hers! I do believe her love language is words of affirmation! 


Timehop showed me that Emerson has successfully worn her e heart outfit for 3 years!! 

Because heart pizzas just taste better! 





To my babies and hubby, May you always know how much I love and adore you. My heart grows daily with my love for each of you. As much as I take care of you, you take care of me with all the hugs, kisses, words and moments you share with me! I'm thankful each day for being your mommy/wife and can't imagine doing life with anyone else. Thanks for loving me and others so well!

Ladies Retreat 2019...BELOVED

*BeLoved*  was a weekend well spent with ladies I adore! I came home with an abundance of wisdom on love and with some super sleepy eyes! HA! I love how each woman was able to use her voice to talk about love in her own way, such a enriching weekend! So happy to be a part of a church family who loves so well! 
She's a gem! A true jewel! I love me some Janet and couldn't ask for a better friend and co planner! 
 This group inspired me through this entire process of planning the retreat. I love each one of them dearly!

My k'girls! Kristen and Katherine two of the sweetest girls I know! 

I won these fancy glasses and someone stole a picture of me in them, too funny! 

Our game duo was out of this world. They had us laughing and being super silly and I couldn't imagine anyone else being better for the job!
