OH MAN I LOVE THIS GIRL...


























MORE FROM THE BEACH...






















OK OK...HERE WE ARE!!!

As you all know I often take a 4-6 month hiatus from blogging!! As much as I love blogging my entire adult life has been curesed with I call the camera hex!! No really, it's not funny! We rarely have one that works & when we get a new one it never lives longer than a year...or the charger breaks within months. Get a new charger on e-bay you say?? OK! But when that thing shows up on doorstep & never works...not even once...I give up! So, thankfully Jesus loves me & sent Anna from Oxford to Lancaster with her amazing camera! Thank you Anna! It is because of you & your Canon that we will get to remember this awesome day on the beach!!

MORE CHRISTMAS!!

Our first Christmas morning as a family of 4!! Soooooo fun!




MY FAV PICS!!

Well...this is us. The Jackson 4!! Enjoy!





CHRISTMAS!!

I know...I should have posted these weeks ago. But I figure being weeks behind is still better than being months behind. Yay for progress! I feel good about myself. Anyways, check out these amazingly cute Christmas babies. I didn't think it was possible but I'm pretty sure Luke LOVES the camera more than Emmie!!

OUR CRAZY GIRL!!

What can I say? Emmie is the most hilarious girl ever!!! I can't believe I get to hang out with her all day...& night...as you will see!!
Her first time attempting to put on her jammies all by herself...& then she walked, well, hopped all the way down the hallway to show us her accomplishments! That's my girl!


Her first couple of nights in her big girl toddler bed were interesting!!
(Don't worry, we have moved her toybox & all hazards
away from the bed since these shots were taken!)



Now this seriously takes some skill!!

A SAD DAY!!

November 30 was a sad day in the Jackson house...we said goodbye to one of our favorite families in the whole world!!! The Ross family moved to Bolivia to show build orphanages & show the people there Jesus' love!
We love you & we miss you!!!


These are Emmie's "boys!" She talks about her "boys" all the time...don't worry Auntie Frances she talks about you too!!

PRETTY IN PINK!!

All I can say is thank God I had a girl first!! Here are a few pink moments from Emmie's birthday party. I know most of you just want to see the kids...but I can't help myself. This is the stuff dreams are made of...seriously!!





What 2 year old doesn't need a pink Sunday Bar at their birthday party??
And a ginormous jar of pink marshallows?

MY FAVORITE MOMENT!!

My favorite thing about my sweet husband is that he LOVES the Word of God. And my favorite part of Emmie's birthday party was when he shared from the Bible & we prayed for her. There is nothing better we can do for her than to pray for her & raise her to know that she has a God that loves her!!

He shared the verse we chose for her when she was only a few months old.
It is our prayer for her life.
Philippians 1:9-11
"And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge & all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory & praise of God."

SHE IS 2!!!

We had a super fun 2nd Birthday Party for our little Emmie Kate! Can you believe she is 2?? We can't either. It was a day filled with family, friends & lot's of pink!! All my dreams...I mean Emmie's dreams came true!! Take a look!
Emmie singing Happy Birthday to herself...of course!


Blowing out the candles!! Naturally, her favorite is ice cream!!
Apparently I thought I was helping.



More amazing pics of the Birthday Girl!!
