P 52 Week 18

This week is all about my girl's pictures.....
Really, I don't know what I would do without her.  She is so helpful to me and honestly everyone needs a "go to girl" and that is what I have with her.

Let's be honest... mothering is exhausting, throw in schooling and you can easily be overwhelmed.  I have all these wonderful ideas about how some special times should turn out but I really get overwhelmed and end up doing a mediocre job instead of a superior.  In walks my girlie girl.  I tell her my idea and she goes with it.  Not just a little but does a spectacular job! My boy turned 18 last month.  I had all these ideas but lack of energy to follow through.  I tell my girl and she does them all with a great attitude and a fervor that only the young and energetic have.. : ) She made my boy the candy bouquet, decorated his bedroom with balloons (we saw this idea on Pinterst) and made him breakfast while he was at a science class and I was on a run.  And then we decorated this cute frame for his party of his growing up years... hence the picture of him holding her... SO SWEET!!! I am so thankful for her!  God blessed me so much with her...

The other two pictures are of her kitty and the other is flowers from home school formal.

P-52 Week 17!

These are from last week....

Home School Spring Formal took a bunch of my time.  Not complaining... loved helping out with it...
Softball was next to take a lot of time and let us not forget school.

Eight days left for my boy...
I am sad and happy at the same time...

God's beauty is amazing and all around us.  We spent some time at the ocean front this weekend.  Oh, how I love the ocean!
God is amazing!  Great friends and great times and the beauty of the Lord!

P 52- Week 15

My boy had a great time with his friends on his 18th birthday!  Our lifetime friends came out to help celebrate.  My friend made his cake and drove across the state to deliver it.
We ended up doing the tourist stuff and headed to Hollywood and Santa Monica Pier.
What a sweet time of fellowship with our friends.  We are very blessed and very thankful!

Blessings,
Kim

And, who knew Billy Graham had a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?? I was surprised!

My Boy Turns 18!

How did he grow up so fast???
5 weeks left of his Senior Year!  18 years old!
Honestly, I can say, that I have loved every minute of being this boy's momma.  I am truly blessed.

For this Child I prayed and the Lord has granted my request. 1 Samuel 1:27

P 52 Week 14

What a fun filled weekend.  It was opening day for my girlie girl's softball team.  She did great.  I love her long blonde pony tail... she looks so cute (if I say so myself).  After her game, we headed to the beach for some fun times in the sun.  We played volleyball against a bunch of teens.  We actually did pretty good for old folks : )

Many Blessings,
Kim

P52 Week 13

What a week! I am barely recovering but we had a blast!  As a family we participated in our Passion Play at church.  What an awesome experience! We have done Passion Plays in our home town for years but this year was the first one in our new church.  It was a great time for all.  A lot of work goes into a production of this magnitude.  We had a tiny part in it.  My husband and son were back stage and  my girlie girl and I were in front.  It was really fun.  And the big news is that this production actually had a donkey!  I was excited to see this.  For years, when we did our play at our home church I would say "let's get a donkey."  It was always a no for different reasons but this one had one. So exciting for me.  : )
The last two are of us on Easter after church service.  What an awesome service and more important an awesome God we serve!

Many Blessings,
He is Risen!
