An Impromptu Photo Session

While all 3 children were here one afternoon during the holidays, I asked if I could take some pictures since it is a rare occasion that we can catch them here together, without other distractions going on...so they acquiesced and I'm hoping to get some of these framed very soon!

Please keep in mind no one "dressed" for these and Tripp had been busy helping put together 100+ sets of shelves all day.

And no 'family photo session' would be complete without Maddie so I had to share one of the pictures with her.

Hope your Tuesday has gone well. I've spent the day with a 'laser engraver Dr.' for annual check-ups and I'm happy to report the machines are both finely tuned and ready for the new year!

Blessings always,
Kaye

Christmas & "The Cow"

Shortly after Thanksgiving Trent was asked, "What do you want for Christmas?" His immediate answer to his Mom was, "a cow".

Even though what he had in mind was a 'real' cow it was a goal I wouldn't give up on easily, to find him 'a cow' whatever shape or form!

Wishing the pictures would do justice to the excitement for this little 2 year old when he opened 'the cow', and even though they don't, the images in my mind will forever be ingrained in my memory of Christmas 2008. Saying Trent was one excited & surprised little one is quite the understatement.

Blessings today and always,
Kaye

I have great confidence in you;
I take great pride in you.
I am greatly encouraged;

Happy Birthday to Me!

This is Mary Katherine secretly logging into KK's blog to wish her a Happy Birthday!!! (I know her passwords because I started this blog for her and she has no idea how to change them!) :)

Please leave a comment for the most thoughtful and kind person that I know wishing her a very happy day. She deserves a perfect day!

Happy Birthday to you, Kaye, from the boys and I. We hope that your day is filled with all things happy and that you enjoy being surrounded by those who love you most. The cake is in the oven and we look forward to celebrating with you today!!! We love you!

Merry Christmas

We celebrated Jack & Christy's birthdays last week so I decided to take this opportunity to show a photo of Jack's birthday gift he received from his children!

We now have our very first ever 'blow up - Christmas decor - yard art'! So far the wind hasn't taken it in flight. We'll see what the next week or so brings since it has been very cold and windy here and at times the helicopter has looked as though it was literally 'taking off'!

I also wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a wonderfully safe, joyful & blessed Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Blessings always,
Kaye

May all that HE is come alive in your heart...

"GOD exalted HIM to the highest place and gave
HIM the name that is above every name."
Philippians 2:9 NIV

Happy Birthday Christy!

Please go here to wish Christy the happiest of birthdays!

Here's to you Christy and hoping it has been a wonderfully blessed day! With next year being a BIG one you'll have to keep us posted on your 'new thing every day for a year' plan.

Hopefully next year you'll be finished with your shopping so us girls 'can' start a new tradition of cooking together on your big day and us treating you to a 'birthday lunch'.

Enjoy the 30's while you can....

Sincere best wishes for you, today and every day.

Love,
Kaye
