A Daughter of God . An Angel . A blessing

My Grandma Ivie was diagnosed with Alzheimer's years ago and has slowly been going down hill. Through this illness, my Grandpa has so willingly and lovingly taken care of her. Together, they have dealt with this humbly, growing ever closer to Heavenly Father.
Today, she has left her frail body and life on this earth to continue her journey towards eternity and perfection. I'm so happy for her, but my heart aches with her passing. Her laugh, her smile and phrases she would say will hopefully be ingrained in my memory.
I'm so thankful to be part of her posterity and legacy. What an amazing Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Daughter, Sister, and Friend.

Christmas...a little late, I know

After church in their Christmas dresses. They were a little too excited to be home, especially Aisha...you'll be able to tell after a few pics.

Abby loves to play the piano, and looks like a pro when she does it. She gets the a book out, flips to a page and plays away. She sounds pretty good too, it's really cute. This girl melts my heart.

I wanted some individual shots. Abby does well at holding still and likes to get her picture taken.

This is my attempt at Aisha's. Look at that face, she is having way too much fun! So I tried again...

and again...

This one will have to do. I got a lot more of her running or twirling, but these give you an idea of how funny she is. Aisha is such a goof-ball, she makes me laugh all the time :)

Christmas morning...

Aisha got a huge doggy. As soon as she saw it, it didn't leave her side. She was dragging it, kissing it, and laying on it all day!

A "pack-pack" with sleeping bag, tent, water bottle, and flashlight. She was in Heaven.

My brother Sean had my name for Christmas...need I say more! Thanks Sean I loved it!

Abby's tent from Santa. She was asking me to make her one out of blankets about every other day, so we asked Santa to bring her a real one. She loves it and had a camp out the first couple of nights.

Doesn't it look like a lot of fun....so I got in too!
