Memorial Day I had the privileged to take some family photos of friends of mine. They have three girls that are all almost the EXACT same age as my three boys! I'm talking days apart for each of them. Even though the humidity almost made all of us melt, and it threatened to rain on us more than once, I got some really lovely pictures of them all. Thank you Dowds for trusting me with your family today. You make me want to do this EVERYDAY!

Easter 2009
I know I'm way late on this post, but I wanted to share some of the pictures from this most important holiday. This year more than any other, I have reflected on the sacrifice of Jesus' death and truth of His resurrection. Without His conquering death, I would have no reason to hope for tomorrow. No reason to look forward to Heaven. No reason to strive toward excellence to please Him. But, He did rise. He did live. He does still. And because of that...because of Him, I live.

best Saturday ever
Last Saturday was the best ever. Well, maybe not ever, but it definitely ranked right up there. It all began when Caleb told me about the "Cyberchase Weather-thing that was happening on Saturday at the Marbles kids Museum in downtown Raleigh in the morning and the Cyberchase people will be there and it's free!!!" So, we looked it up and got some free tickets. Thinking it that would occupy a morning, we went Saturday with plans to also go to Pullen Park.
When we got downtown, we got to see hundreds of dogs getting ready for the K9-3K dogwalk. They were everywhere. I have NEVER seen that many dogs in one place before. It was soooo cool. I got a couple of pictures, but didn't want to be the girl that gets weird looks because she's taking pictures of other peoples dogs. We even got to pet a couple of sweet puppies.
After the puppy-petting and Cyberchase-thing, which was basically a bunch of grown--ups talking about weather and math and science, getting some stuff we'll never use, and then watching a never-seen-before episode of Cyberchase, we decided to use the Buy one, get one free admissions to Marbles we also received. (brilliant ploy by Marbles, by the way). It was so much fun!! We spent about 2 hours there and the kids had a blast.
Then, we got Cook-out for lunch. I've lived within miles of a Cookout for years, and have never eaten there. Why? It's soooo good. After lunch and naps, we played and enjoyed the amazing weather, then watched a movie and had some dinner for family movie night. What a great day. Enjoy the pictures.

This video is really amazing. Thanks to my big brother for first posting it. As I watched, I couldn't help but think forward to heaven, and all God's children praising Him.
"After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number,from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb,clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!"
Won't that be a most glorious day?
