Family

I was just thinking about how tremendously grateful I am for my family, and I thought it was selfish to keep it to my self so I wanted to post about it here.
Here is a shout out to my beloved eternal family…

Dad - Your example has been a positive one in so many ways, because of you I will be forever frugal and always willing to try new things and most importantly your example has taught me to never give up.

Mom – You’re the type of Mother that every human being deserves. You’re love and devotion to family and ability to forgive is greater than I’ve ever seen anyone display.

Julie – You get me. You know when I am down and what to do about it, and for that I cannot be more grateful. You have a gift of reading people and lifting them up when they’re down, it’s a rare and beautiful thing.

Ryan – Your patience and kindness bring such joy and peace to our family. You are one of the most talented people I know, I have always looked up to you in so many ways.

Rhett – Thank you for spreading laughter throughout our home. You have helped me see that this life is not just to be endured, but enjoyed.

Sarah – Your persistence and strong will are admirable. You have overcome so much and you have such strength and beauty through it all. You make this world a better place.


We’re not a half bad looking bunch either




I think I’ll have to do a separate post about all my incredible “in-laws” and my beautiful niece and nephews!

Love You All!
