January/February!

January and February were busy and exciting!
Sister and Mama!

I love my big girl's tender heart! She already sees injustice and wants to change it!

Speaking of--she is growing up fast!
...and in the middle of all the crazy, I have to go get lots of blood drawn once a month. It's just an annoying part of my life at this point, so I hardly even remember it, but for some reason, Avaree took a picture of it. So, now I have a memory...
I can't get enough of these three. I still can't believe that I won't get to see them all the time soon.
Bubbers.
Baked spinach chicken tacos!
We love to read!

Daddy and Bubbers!

One Friday, I took sister on a date to Starbucks (JUST THE TWO OF US), and then we went to have lunch with Avaree at school. She was SO happy! It was precious time together!
Waiting for Ave!

It was her idea to go to Avaree's school, but then she got so upset when I had to share attention between both of them!
Saturday morning dancing... ;)
Felicity loves to color and has gotten better at staying in the lines! She always wants her new "art" to go on the fridge!

One evening, I only had a few random ingredients, so we decided to let Avaree and Daddy play Chopped and surprise us with dinner!
Avaree was SO excited!
The ingredients were ground meat, canned green beans (Daddy was thrilled, of course!), new potatoes, and avacado! I thought the final product was beautiful!
Best of all, it is a great memory! Avaree still hasn't stopped talking about it!
That Sunday afternoon, Avaree and I went to a wedding shower!
She sat with Mrs. Josie for awhile! :)
I sent this picture to a friend. My "pick up line" book (that I read in the pick up line--not to learn how to say pick up lines, ha! I am happilly married!) was so good it made me cry!
I love this picture. Brandt always has to touch me!
Avaree finally got the hang of riding her bike!!!!!!!
...and sassy sister likes to spin around! :)
Pretty girl!

The many faces of Felicity!
On a personal note, I started going to counseling once a week in early February, and was hard, hard, hard, hard. The first few times I went, I came out looking like this. While it has been emotionally difficult and the spiritual attacks have been real, it has been the best thing I could have ever done for my marriage and my family. Maybe I'll write about it another time.

I studied John in BSF this year, and it was incredible. I loved our study of the disciples washing Jesus' feet. I loved this practical application of washing other's feet through service.

My crazy boy!

We were able to go to Kennedee's 16th birthday party one Saturday! We got to see most of B's extended family, and it was so fun!
Sister was tired and had a runny nose, and her little face shows it.
Kennedee was in his school's production of Grease!
This is an old picture that Lindsey sent me from November, but I love it so much.
Yay, Kennedee!
Hip Hop Avaree!
Sisters.
Saturday morning dancing! ;)

Sleepy sister!


More pictures coming! :)
