Our 8 Year Old!


Where to begin?  This blessing gave us the most important jobs we will have on this earth...she made us parents.   It was such a fun day celebrating her with a trip to Sea World.   We are so very thankful that God gave Ansley Parker to us!  It is so much fun watching her grow into a sweet girl with a kind heart!  We LOVE you Ansley P.   Happy 8th Birthday!

We took the girls on a secret adventure for Fall Break!   We gave them clues along the way and even showed them a map.   They made some pretty good guesses and LOVED our final destination!

Ansley chose a Camp Out slumber party for her 8th birthday.  It was such a blessing to have these sweet girls celebrate with her.   Lots of fun was had by all!  I even had the pleasure of sleeping in the tent last night.   S. made his famous pancakes for breakfast and then we enjoyed s'mores for breakfast dessert!  

I am so very thankful that God has given us our sweet, serious girl that made us parents!  We have been on a learning journey for the past 8 years....and we continue to grow to love her more than words can describe.  She is a gift to those who know her.   She is full of kindness and a brain that NEVER takes a break!   We are so very proud of the little girl she is becoming.

We had to celebrate her birthday a weekend early....next weekend is Fall Break and everyone is traveling!  So it looks like birthday week has started a little early this year!

We LOVE you Ansley Parker....thank you for being our amazing girl!
