The last batch of randomness...I think...

Boy, do I feel like a big heel now that I have found a plethora of photos "unblogged" from throughout the summer! I am determined to right this error while getting caught up to winter (I know, this seems like a feat, but it WILL be done). Here is my speed blog entitled "the last batch of randomness...I think..."

One day in late summer, we spent Sunday attending church with some friends in Cynthiana.  They kindly invited us to their home afterward for lunch.  No, I shamelessly took NO photos of my friends, but they did leave their mark on this photo.  You see the Besson family are big Bama fans.  So, yes, my child and my niece are playing happily on an Alabama quilt but I promise you, it means nothing!  :)

I love our girls.  They are so fun!  Being a mom and an aunt has been a true blessing.

I just had to include this photo from our backyard.  Katie is notorious for licking Leah on the face.  Here, she is simply preparing for the inevitable.  He he!

Check out the gum line on Leah.  Her first tooth is popping through.  No more gummy smiles for her.  Sniff, sniff...

One of the truly special things that happened in 2010 is that my friends adopted a beautiful baby girl, Anna Grace.  The next few photos were taken at a shower we threw in their honor. 

Mollie and I have been friends since college (boy am I getting old, but this is for another blog...).   I know her well enough to know that she will not like me putting her photo on here.  She also knows me well enough to know that I won't listen. :)

Alena came by for the shower as well.   Check out those piercing blue eyes.   Just beautiful!

 I like to think of Mollie's husband Daniel as the baby whisperer. Here he is with my baby. But where is the baby of honor?

 

Here is the beauty with Mollie's friend Sara.  How cute!

Speaking of cute, little Leah is just in love with Papaw from the mountains (as are all the girls in the family).  My Dad just has a special way with little ones.  Leah lights up when she sees his photo, but it is nothing compared to her expression when she sees him in person.  Priceless!

Our girls and their Papaw.  I am so thankful that they have the opportunity to know all of their grandparents.

 Sweet!

I love this photo of my girls and myself.  I have so few because I am usually the one taking the photos. 

I am immeasurably blessed.  Thank you gracious Lord!

Here is a random photo of my silly Sarah getting ready for school.  She got a brand new pink princess backpack and lunchbox this year.  Boy is she proud of them.

Daddy and his beauties.  I know they are the apple of his eye.  I am so thankful that Chris gets to drive Sarah to school on many days.  It keeps Leah and myself at home much more, safe and sound. 

I had to add this last photo of my little piggy.  She looooves food and is one of the messiest eaters I know.   I recently saw a quote that said "My kids drive me crazy, and I drive them everywhere else".   So true!   Ha!  But seriously, I wouldn't trade my family for anything in the world.
Will the randomness end?   Stay tuned...
