We were out the other day watering our new lawn,( thanks Luke ) and the grass was so green, the weather so nice, and our daughter's soooo beautiful so I thought it would be nice to take a few pictures. Not only that but we hardly have any pictures of Abigail. These turned out nice so I thought I would post them. Melody is such a camera hog, she would barely let me take any pictures of her sister and then she would want to be in the picture. She looks like such an adult in the ones where she is laying down with her head propped up on her hands. I don't know what I am going to do with her growing up so quick. I trust the Lord will guide me but even so come quickly Lord Jesus. I am so blessed to have such a beautiful family. I guess I need to post some pictures of all of us, but sister Grace can never decide on any pictures with her in them. Until next time, God Bless.

Today Melody and I were eating some orios and she was looking so cute even with the huge mess she was making.

We were taking some pictures of Hannah Mclearn and Melody just had to get some shots so I thought I would get some pictures of her dunlap disease. She'll want to kill me when she gets older but thank the Lord we have these moments now.

This last weekend we went down to Payson, Arizona to take some pictures of the last of six Mclearn children, little Shekinah Grace. She was 7 lbs. and 20 inches long, born May 29 to Matt and Alena Mclearn. We were there with our very dear friends for the birth but I find that babies look much better in pictures a few days after rather than immediately after birth. At some point I will have to go again so I can get full family pictures with the Mclearn's and I'm sure Matt will be extatic about that. God bless the Mclearn family and I pray the children will grow to be as lovely a christians as their parents. We love and appreciate the entire family.

These were some pictures I took awhile ago of Melody. Just wanted some fun shots and needed to experiment with my camera. The Lord has given us such beautiful children and I always enjoy spending time with them and taking pictures of them. They grow up so fast and I think pictures give us the opportunity to revisit the past and thank God for the things He has given us.
