Finlay's 4th Ballerina Birthday

We celebrated our precious 4 (gasp) year old with a "Ballerina" themed party this March. This was her first year in dance class and she adores it. Go figure. Finlay has the sweetest group of friends from school, most of which have been together since the infant room. It's such a treat to watch them-the giggles & hilarious conversations...I was born to be a girl mom!














How have 4 whole years come and gone? Time is my worst enemy. And yet it is the most precious gift-every time I feel that ache in my heart thinking of how quickly life goes, I remind myself how immensely lucky I am to have the gift of another year. This first born child of ours is something special, if I do say so. She is smart, loving, and has an attitude that is strikingly similar to the one that has gotten me into a lot of trouble over the years. I just know she is going to do big things.


Hollow Creek Traditions

We found the most magnificent 10-footer this year at our local Christmas tree farm-Hollow Creek. Truly, I don't think we'll ever find a more perfect, full, symmetrical Christmas Tree! This much anticipated day-after-Thanksgiving tradition is one of my favorites & always supplies me with Christmas card worthy pictures!
