Crazy?!!

For Alex's 13th we had a sleepover with 17 girls. Yes, SEVENTEEN! Are we crazy?!! Yeah, maybe. But it went well. All teenagers were bundles of fun, energy and general sweetness. AND they all got about 5 hours of sleep. Amazing in my book.








The girls did "blind" make-overs! Some pretty hilarious results!


Just a little not-so-subliminal message to help keep our hearts and mouths in check. :)

A Date with Dad

This does a mother's heart good! And it's so good for a daughter's and a father's heart as well. She knows she is treasured and beautiful, he knows he has loved well. And I know she has a taste of the honor and respect she should expect from (and give to) a man. In our imperfect family, God is here...calling us to lay down ourselves and follow Him.
