Happy Birthday, Bear! I love you!!! I am so blessed to be your daughter... :)

When Dad was getting to know Mom, he sent her this video. He is a 'step'-child himself, so he thought of HIS Dad when he saw this. Now, I think of MY Dad... Hope it makes you smile too. :)

Other ironic note: I was 5 when I met my Dad... see below photo. :)

A Picnic At Canyon Lake!

Hi, y'all! I know it's been a little while... :)

For my birthday last week, a group of us went to Canyon Lake for a picnic. God has blessed me with many friends and I had such a good time with them there. We walked across the dam, explored along the cliffs, and went swimming.

Here's some photos!

Hi Mom! :)

Justin's ready to take a dip...

We all jumped in the lake in our clothes!

It was pretty cold, but it felt good.

There you have it. :)
