Tea Party with Great Grandparents

My sweet grandparents come over every Thursday to see the girls and help me with things. My grandparents are some of my closet friends. The Lord has blessed me beyond measure with them. My grandmother every Thursday comes and changes all my linens. She then takes them home and washes them to bring back the next week. She also cooks a big lunch for us and makes enough so that we can have left overs for dinner. I asked her one time, "Me-maw you don't have to do all this every Thursday." She said," Holly I know that, but I was a young mom once and remember how I just want someone their to support and help me." I'm so thankful to have both of them. They love my girls with all their hearts and I appreciate the sacrifice they make driving up from Granbury every week.Tea Time

Olivia's 2nd Birthday

Happy 2nd Birthday my sweet baby girl!! This was Olivia the day she was born. She was delivered a month early and her lungs were not fully developed. She was in the NI CU for a week. During her stay in the hospital the Lord gave me a huge peace about her and her future. The Lord healed her and I pray that her life will bring honor and glory to His Name! Our healthy baby girl on her 2nd Birthday! God is so good and worthy of all our praise. I'm praying this verse over her right now : Ephesians 3:17-20, "And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long, and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge-that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." I pray her confidence, her posture, all of her will be made out of her awareness of God's love for her.

My sweet Dad, Olivia, and Mommy


The girls at the party, we just had family come over and celebrate. It was so close Christmas. Kynnedi is 5 years old now and Savannah is 4 years old. Wow!!


Olivia wanted to have her jacket on during the party. She was so funny because she didn't want me to take it off. I think she was nervous with all the people and attention. I was the same way as a child. I would cry and cry whenever someone sang Happy Birthday to me. She loved pulling out her candle. Here she is eating her cupcake. So yummy!!

Aunt Susan, Olivia, and our cousin Ellie


All my girls - Olivia, Savannah, and Kynnedi. My heart runth over with love for them.
Olivia you're growing so quickly now. Everyday you're doing something new and discovering so many things. You act older because you have two sisters to look up to. Olivia you just really started talking and expressing yourself. It's so sweet to her you try to communicate with us. Kynnedi and Savannah love you so much. You really have three mommies. Lucky you! The Lord has blessed our family so much with you. You have such a sweet spirit. I pray for you daily to come to know the Lord as your personal Savior at a very early age. I pray you're surrender everything in your life over to him. I pray for your future husband and that through your family there will be a very strong spiritual heritage. I pray your children will love the Lord with all their hearts. I love you more then words can even express and you've helped me change into a better person. I love you sweetheart. Happy Birthday!!!
She so does love her Barney!! Ba- Ba

Polar Express Train Ride

In December, we went to Palestine, Tx and rode the train. The train ride was to Rusk and back to the depot. The theme was the Polar Express and in Rusk was the North Pole. We had such a wonderful time. Here are some pictures from the trip.
