A Busy Day

We had one of those busy days when at the end of the day you feel very thankful that everyone survived and was happy. The girls have been working so hard in ballet because the Nutcracker performance is coming soon. For a practice they got to go to an Elementary school and perform a tiny piece of the soldier dance. It was so fun to watch them because I haven’t seen them dance their new parts this year at all. I am really looking forward to the Nutcracker, I love watching it and I can’t wait to see my cute girls on stage. After the assembly we hurried home and we redid hair and makeup and costumes and then the girls performed at the festival of trees for their other dance. The festival of trees was so fun to go to and it was a treat to watch my girls dance some more. After all the dancing I had told the girls we would go to dinner so I took them all out to dinner. And yes Jaxon was with us at every event of this day I just never got a picture of him, he was such a good sport all day long. Josh had to work so I was flying solo and I think we did pretty good.

Daddy the Security Guard

I have never taken a picture of Josh in his security uniform before so I decided tonight before he left for work I would sneak a picture. Josh is a super hard worker and does so much for our family and we are so blessed that he has such a good job.

Sisters….Best Buddies

I was going to take some pictures for some people and Kynzee and Kenna insisted on having me take a picture of them because they were dressed alike. These girls are such good friends, they play so well together. I love these girls and I am so lucky to have them in my life, they are so good to me.

It's not about your scars..it's all about your heart!

I found a new song I absolutely love. I put it as my first song on my blog playlist because I love it so much. Mindy Gledhill, It's all about your heart. I feel the spirit so strong when I listen to this song. There is so much saddness around me right now. Eternal companions being seperated from our earthly life. Some I know and are very close to, some I have just met and feel like I have known them forever and they have taught me so much in the short time that I have known them. I wish I had the answers for them of why this happens, I wish I could make their pain go away. I know I can't, but I know that I live my life a little better every time I am taught by one of these people. One thing I learn as I watch someone say goodbye to their spouse for this time on earth is......

How much I truly love my husband!! And how much I love our sweet children that he has given me. Like this song says "It's all about your heart, not about your scars" What a beautiful song and a beautiful reminder that life is too short to only see the scars and not the beautiful heart of our companions.

I dont mind your odd behavior,

Its the very thing I savor

If you were an ice cream flavor

You would be my favorite one
My imagination sees you

Like a painting by Van Gogh

Starry nights and bright sunflowers

follow you where you may go
Oh, I´ve loved you from the start

In every single way

And more each passing day

You are brighter than the stars

Believe me when I say

Its not about your scars

Its all about your heart
You´re a butterfly held captive

Small and safe in your cocoon

Go on you can take your time

Time is said to heal all wounds
Oh, I´ve loved you from the start

In every single way

And more each passing day

You are brighter than the stars

Believe me when I say

Its not about your scars

Its all about your heart
Like a lock without a key

Like a mystery without a clue

There is no me

if I cannot have you
Oh, I've loved you from the start

In every single way

And more each passing day

You are brighter than the stars

Believe me when I say

Its not about your scars

Its all about your heart.
