Our freedom is not free. There is an extremely high price. It is paid daily by this country’s bravest and finest. Please take the time today and everyday to thank our Service men and women. Ask if there is ANYTHING that you could do for THEM. They do so much for us. The greatest among us are those that serve. I Salute you all today and Everyday!

“Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”(Mark 10:43-45)

Our Beautiful daughter Kyla, had a Sweet Sixteen Party. It was such a BLAST!!! She was surrounded by all her favorite people. The love and fun was at an all time high. It was a night that she will remember the rest of her life.

Proud Mama and Daddy.

Daddy delivering her in style.

Her Nana and Papa ‘wouldn’t have missed it for the world.’

Her ‘Ree’ drove the longest distance to make the celebration.

Jason, you stole another little piece of my heart this night.

I think that she is in Heaven.

And the shoes come off!!! Party time!!!

A BIG Congratulations for my sweet sister Michele. Her and her hubby, Chris welcomed Baby Lana Michele into the world this morning at 1:30 am weighing a healthy 7 lbs 12 oz. Being the Super Woman that Michele is, did this all at home!!!! So proud of you Michele!!! You did it!!!! I hope and pray that I will soon be traveling to see them all. I will make sure to take lots of pictures of Baby Lana if I do.

Just wishing my beautiful, smart, amazing daughter a Happy Happy Birthday!!! We are just so darn proud of her. She is in Advanced Placement classes a grade ahead and could graduate a whole year early if we decide that to be best for her. My girl has started a Praise and Worship club at her school, is in The National Honor Society, has played lead role in her school play and I could go on and on. Seriously, we could not be prouder. Hard to believe that she is SIXTEEN!!! WOW!!! We will be celebrating with a Big Bash in a couple of weeks. Looking forward to that and will be sure to share some images.
