Two Amazing Great-Grandmothers

The last time Tawnya, Lindsay and I were pregnant together, I had sweet thoughts of our little children in Heaven with my mom's mother Marian and my dad's mother Carol. I imagined them both taking turns telling our children about their grandparents and how lucky they were to be coming to families that would love them so much.
Now that Tawnya, Lindsay and I are pregnant together...again, my thoughts are turned once more to my two amazing grandmothers. I love to think of them once more telling our children about their wonderful grandparents as well as their older siblings who came to earth only a short while ago. I can picture Great-Grandma Marian reading them books as her cookie monster and peanut butter kiss cookies bake. I then imagine them getting more rowdy with Great-Grandma Carol, playing Cowboys and Indians and going on adventurous treasure hunts. My Grandma Marian is an AMAZING lady who I know will have planted a little seed in heaven that will grow into a full blown love of books as our children get older. Even though I didn't know my Grandma Carol, I also know that she is an AMAZING lady. The seed she will plant will be that of a zest for life, making each day count, living and loving as though it might be your last.
My Grandmothers are two of the greatest examples of love, service and compassion. I have been so blessed to have these two very special women in my life. Though they aren't here with me physically, I feel their spirit and know that they are still very much involved in my life.

Kenzie's 1st day of School

McKenzie started Preschool on Aug. 18 and couldn't wait to get there (I couldn't wait for her to get there either)! Thanks Lindsay for coming early to take her pictures!

Kenzie and Hayzen



She couldn't hide her excitement!
These are a couple of the flowers from our backyard.

Adrie was SOO mad at us for putting her in the picture!
