I just have to say that I am incredibly blessed by this family God has chosen to place me in. This Saturday, my baby brother turned 12. I can hardly believe that he is growing up. It has been a privilege to be his big sister and I am proud of the boy he is and the young man he will become. Like all twelve-year-olds, he is crazy and doesn't think before he acts or speaks...but he has the sweetest heart. He is eager to learn and to fix his mistakes. That's why I love him so. If I were going to brag some more, I would say that he is an incredibly talented sportsman (he can play anything with a ball) but more specifically the best baseball pitcher his age. He has coordination like no other and will dance you off your feet. He can sing like a little angel and act out any part you throw at him. He has a servant's heart and the sweetest hugs and kisses. But I'm not going to brag...

Jeff and me, 2009. |
I'm also not going to go on about how talented my sister Emma is at planning or how creative she is (she put together Jeff's birthday party this Saturday which was a HUGE hit). She also has a servant's heart and no matter how much Jeff complained about how the party had to be perfect, she never faltered and the party turned out to be, perfect. Lizzy and Dexter were also a huge help on Saturday and I was just amazed by them all.

I hadn't taken pictures in weeks so these are definitely not my best, but I had so much fun watching and participating in the celebration of Jeff turning another year older. Taking pictures Saturday has definitely motivated me to get back on the horse and whip my shooting into shape.

My family is such an inspiration to me and I am beyond grateful for them.
