Angels Among Us...

There are days that occur in your life that you will never forget. When you remember smells, what people wore, what was said, the feeling you felt....I had one of those days yesterday. We had the opportunity to throw a surprise 80th birthday party for my wonderfully amazing grandmother. I can not put into words how much this woman means to not only me but to SOOO many others. I know that everyone thinks that their grandma is the kindest, most gentlest, sweetest soul but I truly believe my grandma is one of a kind....to so many besides just her family. She is the rock of our family and I have been so blessed to have so many wonderful memories of and with her. She truly is an angel amongst us.

 The woman who has taught me so much about life, kindness, faith, marriage, being a mother, friend, sister...

 Four generations of awesomeness!!!

 Family...we may not have it all together (obviously..lol) but together we have it all.

 Mallory on our walk. We were about mile 3 and she says..."This not fun mommy. I go home?" and then laid her head down. I couldn't help but laugh. Within seconds she was enjoying it again.

 Mallory is so into picking dandelions (and smiling like this) and now she likes putting them in her hair.

 Mallory's hair has some serious curls when it gets humid out....can you tell the difference from the ponytail and the other....so curly!

 Mallory and Grant snuggled up watching Frozen.

 They have such a bond. It's so cute. She loves him so and he does so well with her!

 Mallory pouting....

 Aw shucks....just kidding mom! I'm happy!

 She says....I can't see you!

CHEESE!!!

Love this girl with my whole being!

Another angel among us....
