counting blessings

After a VERY long time of no blogging I am definitely feeling an 'itch' to get some posts done :)

I was told I had used all of my picture space...so I was a little too lazy (or maybe a tad bit busy) to figure out how to post pictures.

Well this post comes after a sad sad weekend as the country mourns for those beautiful children and teachers who were taken to heaven on Friday.

I didn't really know where to begin my 'make up' posts but I knew I wanted to post some pictures that Kara (Kolorblind Photography) took of us this fall.  It reminded me of how 'stressful' this photo session was.  Carter wasn't cooperating and he was definitely giving us his new '3 year old' personality.  

Except....after Friday, 'a stressful photo shoot' or a hard day with a three year old testing his limits is NOTHING.  I have my babies and I can hold them tight.  Those mommys and daddys in Newtown aren't able to say this, and I bet every single one of them would take any 'bad' day to have their babies back.

Today and every day I am counting my blessings and we are sending so much love and prayer to the families in Newtown and to the families of the injured children in China.  

Peace and Love to them during this time......

Here are some of the beautiful pictures Kara took of our family.

So thankful for my little family and for our fabulous friends that sure know how to work a camera!!
