Happy Birthday to Kensley!

Today, my baby girl turns 2... officially at 3:35 pm....I can't believe that 2 years ago, I was heading to the hospital, so anxious & excited to meet my baby girl. Where has the time gone? She is so much fun & having a girl has definitely been different than the boys. I LOVE my boys, don't get me wrong, but something about having a girl is just so much fun. (I may not be saying that when the teen years hit...ha!) I guess because we have more in common. She has the greatest personality, although I think the terrible 2's are making their grand appearance in the past couple weeks. She's pretty laid back & goes with the flow. She loves to get in the floor & play with her brothers & rough-house right along beside of them. She plays cars with them & pretends to shoot the bad guy when they break out the toy guns. She also loves her babies too. She loves to carry a pocketbook & talk on the pretend phone and play dress up. She loves to read & sing and I could go on & on.


She's having a Minnie Mouse birthday party today. Here's the invitation I created for her... she's wearing her Minnie ears & shirt and holding up 2 fingers b/c she can't do the normal "2". She has a Minnie costume to wear to her party today...thanks Mimi!... so I can't wait to get some shots of her in it.



Happy Birthday baby girl! We love you so much & can't wait to see what the Lord holds for you in the future.

Everyone else is doing it... so I did too! YearbookYourself.com lets you upload a picture & put your face into a time era. This is SO funny! I think I look so much like my mom in the 60's picture of me. Corby looks like such a dork with his old-timey photos & I never would have imagined what he looked like fat...ha! You need to give this a try if you haven't already. (I forgot what some of the years are on Corby's pics, but you get the idea)

Our computer is still down & I'm struggling with that. I use the computer A LOT, so it's been like I've lost a lifeline....ha! Corby has been kind enough to bring home his laptop each evening for me to check email and do a few things. So if you email me & I don't respond in a day or two, you know why... sorry in advance.

Several people have mentioned about wanting to see my pictures from the mountains, so I'm going to post just a few & try to get the rest uploaded somewhere online so you can see them. They are really pretty!

We had a great message at church yesterday. Our pastor spoke about being stressed out... what causes it, how to deal with it, how to avoid it and I SO needed to hear it... you can watch the message here. Click on the sermon for September 28.

Well, that's a quick update for now.
