Elizabeth's 5th Birthday!

My little Bissy is 5 years old!!! Can't believe it! She is a beautiful, sweet, helpful, spunky, funny little lady, and we are so thankful for her!

Sweet sisters!

Elizabeth enjoys horses...and I made this cake!!!

Sweet baby year!

I badly need to catch up with some recent (or not recent) photos of our family these last two months...Starts from most recent (today, in fact) and ends at Thanksgiving...sorry, Marta!

The chaos of moving and decorating for Christmas all at once!!! Whoo hoo!!!
