Thanks for visiting...I took these with my Canon 50D and my 50mm 1.8f lens...enjoy!

MckMama's son Stellan and My Son Landon

Could they be brothers?

Check out MckMama's blog and look at her very handson son who was COMPLETELY healed in utero when doctors told her he would surly die.

I'm Back...

Well, life since Mom's passing hasn't been easy. It has been a long time since life has beaten me down but hopefully I am digging out of this grieving. Some days are great, actually not a whole day has been great...some hours are great then the next I am just ready to throw in the towel. God is near the broken hearted, I am sure of this. He knows about death, even if it was just for 3 days. God knows my every thought and loves me anyway.

On another note completely...I have a new camera! And I am in love with it (actually I am in love with the pictures it takes of my kids)...anywho...check out these beautiful kids!

One Month Ago

Meeting Landon

The whole family on Thanksgiving Day

Beautiful Mom

Today, one month ago, I lost my mom to a very short battle with pancreatic cancer.

18 days to be exact.

I miss her greatly.

Ella's Spirtual Birthday

Well, it started 6 years ago. Praying that the word of God would fill this sweet baby girl's heart. That she would accept Christ at an early age...many nights praying the word of God over her.

November 2, 2008 at 8:15 pm..she invited Jesus Christ into her heart.

Her Story
At dinner that evening, I had made home made lemonade and was telling the girls that her Papa Reese loved to drink homemade lemonade that Nana made for him.
Ella asked me if I missed Papa Reese and I, of course, said yes. She said that we would get to see him again because he is in heaven with God and Jesus. She then said, "Do you know what I did today on the way home from choir practice?...I asked Jesus into my heart".

WOW...what?..really!...oh my...THANK GOODNESS...praise GOD...really...wow...what now????

I asked her why she would want to do that. She said so that she could live in heaven with Jesus and God when she died. She said that she wanted Jesus to forgive her for her sins.

Later after dinner, Scooter and Ella went outside to "talk" under the stars. It was a beautiful night here! Scooter said that he asked Ella many questions about her decision and was able to lead her in the prayer of salvation in a "special place" that Ella picked out.

She was glowing when she came back inside (daddy had been crying). She told me that she had prayed to ask Jesus to live in her heart.

Pray for us as we help her grow in her faith and to really trust Jesus in all things.

4 weeks

Happy 4 weeks, Landon!

We are such a sweet additon to our family...
