Thankful

It's been a whirlwind year so far and it's only March! I don't even know where to begin to say how incredibly grateful we are to have the love and support from our family, friends and photographers around the world. There are days I sit in my closet, I know weird but it's where I get the most quiet time, and pray to God for forgiveness because maybe I haven't used my words with Grace or that I got upset because I had to get up again and let the dog in and his paws were slathered in mud. I'm am not perfect, I have so many flaws.

But mostly, I'm thankful to God for all the blessings He has brought our way. We are truly fortunate to have found our God given talents and even more so that we can share them with others. I am forever indebted to Him. I praise Him like no other.

Our faith is by far most important to us. And our family, well, they are so incredibly special to us. Sometimes, I know I'm hardest on my family. So, I feel so blessed that they love me so much. I love them too. My mom is the most incredible woman I know. She is strong and stubborn, I'm much like her. We are both so blessed to have incredibly patient husbands. My dad, my hero, passed away in 1996. I know he knew I was in good hands with Bob. He also knew that my mom's husband, my stepdad, was the next best thing to a real dad to me. I am in good hands indeed.

I wanted to share some long over due photos from our Dude Ranch trip we took last Labor Day with my parents. My mom turned 75 that weekend and she was riding horses. Amen!!!

YOU CAN SEE A TON MORE PHOTOS FROM THIS TRIP ON OUR FACEBOOK PAGE HERE.

Wishing everyone a beautiful weekend...!

What do you suppose this horse is trying to say?

That's my guy! Go cowboy!!!

Even when we're on vacation Bob is using his off camera flash set up! Bob aways says, practice, practice, practice!!! The kids were jumping hay barrels. Even us adults jumped in on the fun!

Our little girl isn't so little anymore!

In the next frame, Alli was pushing her brother off the hay barrel....!

There was an amazing sunset this day!

Our neighbors... the Soljacichs. We've been friends for 15 years now. It's amazing how fast time is flying by!

Papa and Bobby are always goofing around. I swear Papa thinks he's a kid!

Even Hunter, our pup was posing!

See what I mean about Papa and Bobby always goofing around?

3 generations! My daughter, my mom, and me.

And the 3 kids!

I could not be more blessed to have such incredible parents!
