Last week with sissy !!!

All the baby pic's of Lanelle are scrapbooked, but this has always been one of my favorites. I don't know if all mothers go through this, or if I was just extremely close to my daughter over the years. But I have to admit, that along with my joy of her getting married, comes a little sadness too. This is the last week that she is more our daughter, than she is Bo's wife. I know she has to move on with life, but I will miss the little girl that use to need her mommy when things got tough. I'll miss the talks we use to have on the porch swing, etc. I know it sounds selfish, but the other day, when I was sharing this with a good friend of mine, she said it was completely normal for a mother to be a little sad. So even though I will be shedding tears of joy, as she gets married, this will be a tough week for me!

Christmas Time !!!

It was a great Christmas, a lot of fun and good times. Now we have a busy week ahead of us, as we watch our baby girl, move on to her next step in life!

Lanelle's Wedding Shower !!!

We had a BLAST at Sissy's wedding shower tonight, Sara did a great job!

Lanelle's Endowments !!!

What a wonderful day! Dec 16 2009. Our girl received her Endowments. It was such a special experience, and she was just filled with the spirit. You can just see it in her face, she was absolutely radiant!!

"Halley the Angel"

Here's our baby halley, laying on her bed. She's so content, now that our family is all together again! She's so happy daddy is back, but just in time for us to lose sissy. Luckily she lives so close!!
