Coming Soon!

 

My sweet niece came over this weekend for a maternity shoot.

To say I was a bit nervous would be an understatement.

Now, I’m sure you will agree she is one gorgeous young mother to be.

And her sweet smile lit up every shot.

I just loved all the cute outfits she brought along for the shoot.

Yes, you can easily see the joy see is feeling about this little one on the way.

The color for this week’s theme is orange!   I didn’t realize how much orange is all around us during this special time of the year.

OK, I have a confession to make.

 

IMG_0267w

I just can’t take enough pictures of my sweet grandchildren.

I

Yes, I just love everything about each one of them. 

 

Live Everymoment

And one of my very favorite things is their laughter. For this Grammy,  it truly is the best medicine!

 

IMG_0420w

I love their innocence and their love for Jesus.  So pure and sweet.

 

 

IMG_0481w

And those beautiful eyes they flash at me.  Oh my…my heart just melts every time!

 

IMG_0495wgirls

It won’t be long before they are all grown up, and weekends with Grammy won’t be as fun.   So…I will treasure every one of these special moments.

 

Give us your eyes Lord so we can see the potential each one has in you.

“Hope is one of the greatest gifts we have been given. It carries no price tag but its value is priceless. We cling to it when the future looks uncertain and praise it when things turn out better than we could have ever imagined. Hope is the foundation on which we build our dreams and aspirations. It has been the cornerstone upon which ordinary people have accomplished extraordinary things.”

When I think of fall and the changing of the seasons,  homemade vegetable soup always come to mind.

Hands

I_Heart_Faces

 

The theme for this week for I heart faces is hands…

 

IMG_1732w

 

 

"This is my hand.
My hand will do
A thousand loving things for you
And you will remember
When I am tall...
That once my hand
Was just this small."

Kept by Him

I don’t think there is any part of the body that is more precious, more tender, more carefully guarded than the eye.  Here we see how David cried out to the Lord for protection when he was facing strong opposition in his life.

We also can trust the Lord with whatever we may be facing, because he has His eye right upon us!

The kids were off of school last Friday so my sweet daughter in ♥ came out to visit for the day.

So we decided to take the children to the zoo!  Oh my…Karli just loves animals.

 

 

IMG_1013w

We were off to one adventure filled day.  

 

 

IMG_1024w

Now for their favorite part…the petting zoo.   First thing in order was to do some grooming on the goats.

 

 

IMG_1040w

Karli was in her glory!  She made a friend, and he really enjoyed her undivided attention.

 

 

IMG_1419w

Of course we had to have a few photos for for Grammy.  I just love this one of Cole and his mommy.

 

 

IMG_1431wkarli

And then it was time for a nice cool treat.

 

 

IMG_1468w2

Now these girls have a blast when they are together!

 

 

IMG_10064x6w

They may be getting a little big for this stroller, but they managed to fit and had lots of fun.

 

 

IMG_1228w

And to end our perfect day we all took a ride on the train.

Better hurry Grammy, the train is getting ready to leave!
