Thankful

What are you thankful for?

Emilie Sue

We're so lucky to have our own photographer in the family. Lindsay did a birthday photo shoot with Emilie and I really struggled to pick just 4 pics for this post. Thanks Linds. You captured her so well! Click here to see more!

Our Veteran

Eric's school had a special Veteran's Day assembly today. They were told to invite any Veterans they know to come and participate. My Grandpa fought with the army infantry in World War Two. I've always been so proud of him and his courage. Today as he stood up on the elementary school stage with Eric to be honored I was touched by the fact that if it weren't for Grandpa and others like him, Eric wouldn't have the opportunities he is having. Thank you Grandpa! We love you.

Pour Isabelle...For Isabelle

Roland and his sister, Isabelle when they were young.

This was taken on the first trip I took to France when we were engaged. It was my first time meeting Roland's family. I fell in love with Isabelle the minute I met her. She was so affectionate and loving and made me feel so comfortable even though we couldn't understand each other! ( I was so skinny and young in this picture!)

Unfortunately, Isabelle has only been able to see our children a few times in their lives. This was taken when they came to visit in 2006. They arrived in time to welcome Lydie into the world. It was the only time Roland had some of his family here for the birth of a child. I can't believe it's already been three years since we last saw her! We love you Isabelle!

Joyeux anniversaire Isabelle...Nous te souhaitons une merveilleuse journee...avec tout notre Amour...ton frero et la famille....Bisous
