an {old} picture: a cute sister

Minus the bad quality of this picture it's definitely a favorite!

I was looking through some {old} pictures I took 2 summers ago with my point&shoot camera and found this picture.

Courtney was so cute when she was 2(she still is:). Super dark brown eyes, hair that was almost never in a ponytail or clip, and a personality that has no description. If you know her, you know what I mean by a "Courtney" personality! I love her like crazy!

Last night she slept in me and Ashlyn's room. Me and her did a face mask, ate peanut m&m's, and watched part of Princess Diaries..

The funniest things come out her mouth! And the best part is she doesn't even try it..(: Like when she asked how early we were gonna stay up.lol

---- ----

Her biggest accomplishment this summer: swimming all by herself!!

Elise Joy~

You may have noticed that I have a sister Elise.

Well, we know another Elise too, and she just turned 3!!

On the day of her birthday we met with her family at the zoo,

but it was over spring break and there were sooooo many people there.

So instead, we decided to have a picnic and spend the afternoon at the park.

Than we came to our house for supper and cake and ice cream.

After we ate, I asked her mom if I could

take a few pictures of her and she said "Sure!".

So I had the privlege of taking this sweet girls pictures!

  

I think little girlies are so much fun to take pictures of..

{BFF::Elise and Courtney}

I love to watch these girls play.

They act so much alike its hilarious!

And they even have the same gorgeous eyes!!

I love the look of concentration on her face as she tries to hold up 3 fingers!!

{sister Evangeline}

I let her 'model' a buttefly clip I made.(:

Thanks Arloa for letting me take pictures of your adorable daughter!

Happy Birthday Lisey Joy!

about the {new song} on my playlist

It's a song I've been hearing pretty often on the radio recently....
When we're having a bad day and things aren't going our way, its easy not to take time and just praise Jesus for everything that He sends our way, fun and not-so-fun..
- - - - - - -
I'd Need A Savior
AMONG THE THRISTY 

How many names
Can I use to explain
The love of my Jesus
The life that He gave
And so many times
Will I praise You today
I lift up my life
Cause You're always the same
And my offering
To you I bring

Your name is Jesus
Your name is Jesus
You're the wonderful, counselor, my friend
You're what I hold on to
I know that You brought me through
All the days of loss and to the cross, You knew
That I'd need a Savior

How many songs
Can I sing to proclaim
Your wondrous love
Oh and beauty so great
Oh and, What would I say
If You brought down the rain
And everyday I walked through the pain
My heart would still say…

......All the days of loss, and to the cross You knew,
That I'd Need a Savior Well, I'd need a Savior
You're what I hold onto, I know that You brought me through
All the days of loss and to the cross You knew,
That I'd need a Savior
I'd need a Savior,
I need You Savior.

*For some reason its more quiet than the other songs on my playlist so you might have to turn up the volume a little so you can hear it better.

Some of my awesome cousins came to visit us last week! :) We met them at the Tennessee Aquarium..

As you can tell with 17 children (over half of them under age 11), its hard to have everybody looking at the camera! 

Chelsy and I had fun taking pictures in a giant mirror!! :)

One of my favorite quotes right now:

"Any concern that is too small to be turned into a prayer is too small to be made into a burden."
-Corrie ten Boom

I love my little sisters............As I was writing this post I played dutch blitz with Elise and put together puzzles with Courtney. They absolutly love when you spend time doing things with them. :)

Harrison's getting so big!

Right now I'm holding him and he's slobbering all over my phone.....He loves my phone and I can barely talk on the phone and hold him at the same time cuz he jus wants to grab it!

And the reason he's drooling so bad right now is because he's teething.......again.....but this time its eye teeth......fun,fun,fun.....I know!!! But I do love how his top teeth now show when he smiles...... :)

valentines~

  

Mom got some cute lolipops at Target so I took pictures of the girls suckin on em... :)

The snow was absolutly GORGEOUS!!!

There's not really much of anything else to say, except that it was ALOT of fun and I think I have the cutest sisters EVER!!! :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------*

Since tomorrow is Valentines day, I think it would be appropriate to read 1 Corinthians 13{aka. the 'love chapter'} to refresh our minds on what true love really is.

...but the greatest of these is love.
