Flashback Friday

By sunshineandholly on October 14, 2011

That’s me and my sweet little nephew when he was a baby! He just had his 5th bday party a few weeks ago. Time sure does go by fast! (Note to self – make Josh text me the pics from my nephew’s bday party so I can post them. The pics are super cute!) My niece looks like a young lady now…it seems like just yesterday I was holding her in her little newborn UGA onesie…so precious…

Anyway, I love my niece and nephew – they really are the CUTEST kids in the world! I don’t get to see them as much as I’d like to…which is sad since they really don’t live that far away. I’ve gotta make more of an effort to drive up to see them! Plus my sister’s about to have another baby! I’m SO excited. It’s another girl and she’s due early November. Wee!

Congrats Eric!

By sunshineandholly on August 12, 2011

Last weekend we headed down to Columbus for Josh’s youngest brother’s basic training graduation. If you’ve never been to a service graduation, you’re missing out. They’re actually pretty cool. There’s smoke, and guns and cannons – quite a show! 🙂

Josh’s youngest brother, Eric, was a foster child that Josh’s parents took in. He’s such a sweet guy and he fit in so well with the family, so Josh’s parents decided to adopt him.

When you think of all Eric’s been through, it’s really a blessing how wonderful he has turned out. He’s a kind person with a great sense of humor.

Eric, we’re so proud of you! Congrats!

Saying Goodbye

By sunshineandholly on July 28, 2011

Last week, my husband’s great aunt passed away. She lived across the street while he was growing up and was like a grandmother to him. The funeral was beautiful. Josh was a pallbearer and he and his family took comfort in knowing that she was now in heaven with her husband and the three little babies she had lost.

This week, my husband’s grandmother on his father’s side passed away. She had suffered with ALS for a few years and was in failing health. She was a sweet little woman who was so happy when Josh and I got married. The funeral is Saturday. She’s also in heaven now with her husband.

Both women were incredibly kind, caring women. They both followed God and were so good to Josh and his family.

Aunt Gladys and Grandma D – we’ll miss you so much.

Kitchen è Finita!!

By sunshineandholly on June 24, 2011

Yes, that’s right – the kitchen is FINISHED! Can you believe it? I can’t…it seems crazy that we actually finished such a huge project. And I’m SO happy with how it turned out! Here are some pics from our super fun “Kitchen Open House” where we showed off our hard work to all our friends and family!
