Trains....

This little boy...



... loves trains...



... if we are stopped at the rail road tracks while a train is passing by...



... this little boy insists on rolling down the window, waving and yells "CHOOO CHOOO" at the top of his lungs...



... while we drive over the train tracks, this little boy puts his hands up as if he was on a roller coaster ride...



...this little boy LOVES trains... and his mama thinks of him every time she sees a train or rail road track!

All of the pictures in this post were taken by my sister who is a fabulous photographer - check her stuff out here: http://mcpix.wordpress.com/

Goodbye 2010 - HELLO 2011

A year ago this month, I got on a plane and never looked back...



... I got off that plane, with a different "job", and a sick dog...



... in 2010, my precious Nhyja went to Jesus...



... family came into town to celebrate my Grandpa Mel's 80th Birthday...



... Handy Manny came to stay for the month of October...



... I dove into the Word and was changed...



... we packed and then unpacked without moving...



... we drew pictures of Jesus for Santa...



... we made cookies ...



... we enjoyed time with family ...



... we experienced Christmas through the eyes of a three year old...



... we ate a Christmas ornament and didn't die... it was a really OLD candy cane...

Most of all in 2010, our lives were changed, our hearts grew to love Jesus more and we saw HIM provide in ways we never imaged. 2010 was a good year, a hard year, a year of emotion, love, peace, joy, and Jesus... it will be fun to discover what He has in store in 2011...

and I will be attempting to blog on a regular basis again... Praise JESUS for blogging!
