BK

I love this picture of our Betsy & Kyle!

 

BK Birthday Season

Betsy is 13 now!  We all loved this surprise yard card and the snow made it really pop!

And Kyle is 11 now. The next birthday is V's!

Meanwhile in Arizona, Oceanna is growing up too.  She looks so much like her dad here.

Skye keeps an eye on the front door :)

We're getting ready for Valentine's Day at Petals & Co

and then it will be time for St Pat's and Easter!

Christmas 2020

How thankful are we for these two!  

Opening Christmas Eve

At thanksgiving I spent so much time on the food, I didn't think one thought about the table until the very last minute.  So for last night, I tried to do less food prep and more table thinking.  The keto sign is by Brandi.  It wasn't really meant for a table sign, but it fit right in!

"I don't know what it is, but I love it!"

Oceanna spent Christmas at the beach!

Mark got a new firepit for Christmas.  But no fire on Christmas Eve, it has turned CoLD!!

V and that Skye girl :)

From Christmas 2017.  We miss Judson so much, but we know he's here with us.

Mama's angel ornaments that she made for the boys years ago.  They are little works of art for the heart.

Betty sent the angel wing ornament this year

The hawks always remind us of Judson. 

Tabitha came to the house to take our family holiday pictures this year.  

We're known Tabitha since she was a baby.  She's grown now, a great photographer and newly married, which also happened during this year of the virus! 

And for a little laugh here, Skye girl with her devil dog look :)

Here's to making new memories.  May 2021 be as merry and as painless as possible!

It's Almost Christmas

Winter 2020:  Darcy's outdoor seating area

And Maldener's sidewalk seating, where I've loved eating during the warm summer months past.  

Now it's heaters and bring-your-own-blanket.  It feels like forever since we've been out to eat!

Our little Oceanna turned one!  Those big blue eyes are so beautiful.  She's making her first trip to Arizona for the gem show in January.  We hope to get to see her and her dad and mom soon, soon, soon.

Rachel's house looks so pretty all lit up for Christmas!

We've pretty much finished Christmas shopping here, I so appreciate all those workers who are bringing our packages.  

Thanksgiving Week

 I had lots of plans to cook fancy keto dishes, but it may come down to just the basics!  I've been at Petals quite a bit lately, it's so beautiful there.  

But today, I worked on our own front door. 

Betsy and Kyle and Rach came over for pizza dinner this past week.  She's almost 13!

and the Thanksgiving cactus is blooming. We are blessed
