What a sweet life

The last few days I am reminded of how blessed we are...great family, challenging (& fun) jobs, close friends, a beautiful daughter: a sweet life. Thank you, Lord, for each of these.

Playin' around

hello there

our cutie pie (standing up and) posing for the camera...can you see the new top teeth poking through?

visiting the Woods family camp for lunch

Tight squeeze from Jill and Anna Claire

Baby shower for Baby Girl Murphy

Katie & her mom & sisters

Carrie L., Katie, Kara L.,(me) and Amy D.

a late night celebration for Jason's 34th b-day
(he was traveling most of the day, so dinner & dessert was later than usual)

Sadie "helped" by playing sweetly, despite a head cold and swollen eye

she really does love her daddy
(even though she fell asleep before he got home)

I know, it's silly, but birthdays are supposed to be fun, right?

a guarantee of his special present... which has to be ordered later
that's right -- a gutter cleaning robot! who knew?

and a few simple things: IBC root beer, an iTunes card for audio books and a new Texas A&M tumbler
Happy birthday honey!
