so... here's this week's thursday three. picture style.
{one}
we went to tyler, texas this weekend to visit my friend hannah and her sweet family! hannah and i met on a missions trip to england with teen missions international when we were just sixteen years old... crazy!!!! we got really close that summer, and kept in touch through letters (yes, old fashioned letters... don't you miss those??) and visited each other off and on until i moved to texas almost seven years ago! we've seen each other through the past almost-fifteen years of our lives including high school, college, weddings and babies. priceless. she has been such a source of encouragement, wisdom, prayer and truth in my life and i love her so much! here is a picture of us with our lil girls :)

tuesday evening after work, we dressed bel in her easter dress and drove over to a spot near our house where there were bluebonnets galore! since it is our last spring living in texas, bluebonnet pictures were an absolute must. it was a beautiful night, bella (miracle of miracles!) actually sat still and let us snap away, and it was a fun lil family outing. love the shots we got... this is one of them.

i *love* this picture because i love watching nick be a dad to our lil girl. bella loves her daddy. she crawls around all day, playing and exploring continually saying "dadda. dadda!" and she loves riding on his shoulders. i started snapping pictures when we were out and about the other night... these are my two greatest loves on this earth and i thank god for blessing me with them every single day!
...aaaaand because i can never just stop at three... and because i love this picture so freaking much. i went to check on bella the other day after i laid her down her for nap. this is what i found :)
it's been a good week. every week... every day... every minute is a gift. life is full of precious moments and i want to fully embrace and treasure each one.
happy-almost-weekend, everyone!
your so adorable, meg! :) i knowe we didn't get to hang out ALL the time, but just knowing you will be in maine soon makes my heart so sad and so happy (for your family!) maybe at some point ill be able to go up there and babysit for bella while you and nick go out and you guys can show me around the place.
