The second & third picture is Tess telling us how old she is. (although we were not celebrating her birthday the number 1 fit this occasion!)
It was such a sweet gesture and so heartfelt and we are so thankful for these dear sweet brothers & sisters in Christ who have treated Brent and I like their own children and love on Tess like she's their own grandchild!
I'm so glad they loved on you guys like this! And Tess is precious! What a beautiful girl she is!
ReplyDeleteCute pics!
ReplyDeleteThere is no better way to celebrate then with CAKE!
You have a beautiful family and your daughter is a doll!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog today and posting a comment. I will be visiting yours on a regular basis.

My mom and dad always celebrated my "anniversary". The boys were jealous LOL. But it is a great tradition.
ReplyDeleteMarian,
ReplyDeleteShe is so beautiful! Just makes me want to kiss on those sweet cheeks. :) Miss you guys.
Just all around sweetness! Her grin can light up a room. Tell Tess her cousins Sam and Jack miss her, and give her a big kiss.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that you have such caring and thoughtful people in your church!

Kind friends really do show us the love of God don't they. What a special, sweet thing to do. And I will say this again, your daughter is soooo beautiful, I mean seriously, there aren't words!
ReplyDeleteShe did a lot better in that cake than Andrew did in his. I have posted up his bday party pics...you'll have to look
ReplyDeleteLove the pics. You are a great photographer or is it just that Tess is so adorable.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet of that couple to honor your 1 year anniversary with her.
