Gramma and Rachael dancing the night away!!!


This is one of the many videos shot New Years Eve night! This one is especially funny not just because Gramma was getting down, but I must have got a little to in to it because I broke my necklace!

Post Christmas Celebration!

Derek, Holly and the boys finally made it down from KC. So we had our post Christmas celebration. It was a great time! The kids all enjoyed being together and
played the whole time!

Gracie Mae got lots of attention from her Blakey Mae!

She was stuck to Caleb like glue and where ever he
was she was sure to follow as well!


. . . and of course Mr. Tanner was the center of attention!

Gracie giving James a new hair cut!!!


Gracie is sure putting that new beauty salon to work! James was her 1st client. I am not sure he knew what he was getting himself into when he volunteered!

Christmas


Just a few snap shots from Christmas Day! I video taped most of it, so there are a few less pictures this year!
It was a fun filled day!!!

Santa don't forget!!!


Gracie and James were reminding Santa not to for get the presents!!! They were to excited to sleep until Santa gave us a call and they talked to him and he said he was on his way. After that they were out like a light. All 3 piled in bed with Gramma!

Christmas Eve at PaPaw's




We spent Christmas Eve at Papaw's house. Santa even made an early stop bringing Gracie a unicorn pillow pet she had asked for.

It was nice to be in Jonesboro for the holidays, since we haven't in 6 years!

James and Ashlynn Christmas 2010




These cutie pies are all geared up for Christmas! James is asking Santa for a Bebe gun and hunting stuff. Ashlynn wants Babies, Babies and a cell phone!

Quick Visit with Santa!


Gracie started off her visit with Santa by thanking him for her dollhouse she received last year. She told him EXACTLY what she wanted him to bring this year, after trying to convince him she had really been trying to be good. It was pretty cute and comical as well!

Gracie Christmas 2010




We had to take a few quick snap shots for Christmas Cards! I am the worlds worst about getting family pictures done of all 3 of us. I guess that is what happens when you are always behind the camera!

We took Gramma to our favorite Park today!




I just love the Old Mill in North Little Rock. Since it was such a nice day we decided to pack a picnic and headed up there. The girls loved it and I think Gramma enjoyed it as well.

Gracie and Ashlynn were quite the little posers as always!!!

5 Little Snowmen


Sorry it is side ways! It was just to cute not to share with everyone! This is one of Gracie's favorite Christmas Songs. My favorite part is at the end. The hand gesture she makes when she says "they melted". Too funny!

Caleb Kenneth







They don't come any cuter, sweeter or more full of life than this sweet little man!

Thanksgiving at Gigi's

Had such a great visit with my Mom's side of the family for Thanksgiving. It was so nice to have everyone together in the same house for the first time in almost 5 years! Lots of laughs and memories shared. I know Gigi really enjoyed having all her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren together as well! We are really going to have to do this more often!!!


Packing the biggest Turkey of all!

For some reason this child loves to play in suitcases! She wasn't much help in the packing department when it came time to prepare for our eventful Thanksgiving weekend. I think we may need to get some larger luggage!

Family Reunion, Suiter Style!

Well we followed up Thanksgiving with a trip to Missouri for the Suiter Family Reunion. It was so nice to see people we haven't seen in so many years and sure wish we could see more of!
Lots of reminiscing about old times, and meeting all the new additions to the family. Followed up with some wonderful BBQ and karaoke. It was a great day!!!

Every picture tells a story . . .

Caught in the moment of happiness, love and I think a song!

Katelyn and Natlie's Portrait Preview



Today was like taking a step back in time for me.
These two sweet little girls belong to a long time friend of mine. I can remember when the oldest was born and as she got older she was my little side kick. It still amazes me, because in my mind one should be the age of the other. Love them both and had so much fun at the park with them today. Gracie even got to tag along and play with them as well!

Britney's Dance Competition



One of the great things about living a little closer to family is getting to be apart of all there activities. Gracie and Tim were able to attend Britney's dance Competition which was a lot of fun. Tim did what he does best, making lots of noise from the sidelines and Gracie was one of her biggest fans as well. Gracie was quite impressed and I heard all about it when she got home. So proud of Miss Brit Brit! She is great in all that she does and hope she lives out her dream to dance for the Razorbacks some day!

Lookie what is finally up!


I know the picture is dark, but I was to excited to wait till daylight to take a picture. We are finally on the market and I could not be more excited!!! After many months of hard work the end is hopefully soon in sight!

Bye Bye Old MacDonald Preschool


Today was a very sad day at Pre-school. We are not just leaving North Platte we are leaving many friends and a whole second family. Gracie's teachers are great examples of this. Such a great pre-school and they have loved and spoiled my little girl the past 2 years and opened her mind to so many new things! Thank you so much ladies and we will be back to visit!

Liberty's 4 Year Portraits


Happy Birthday Libby!

Miss Libby is turning 4 and it wouldn't be complete with out her very own Birthday shoot! Shy at first it didn't take her long to crack right out of that shell and start striking poses and the best part of all she got to do it in a tutu, which she was thrilled about!

Douglas Family Preview


Had such a fun day with these guys. Such a sweet family and 3 of the cutest girls I know!

Being Silly!


Gracie and I on a cold rainy day!
