365 ... 267-273

It's Friday and I'm actually posting!  :)  It's been another rough week with losing Debbie (Haylee's 3rd grade teacher and dear friend of ours) but we had a wonderful ceremony for her at the school and it helped heal our hearts just a little bit. We got the pleasure of meeting her parents & in laws, as they joined us!  Truly amazing people with such big hearts.  Now that I have met her father, I know where she gets her joy, positive outlook on life and big heart. I could see Debbie in everything he did, down to his smile! And that was wonderful! Like a part of her is still here!

So here are my shots for the week...

Went with my best friend and her grandson (Monkey) to a baby shower.  Isn't he a doll with those big eyes & those curls...

Sad and tired so I laid in bed and watched movies...

I love Halloween & decorating. I'd forgotten all about it then when I remembered I was just too sad to get up and bring them out.  But then Nugget asked when I was going to put them up...so I did...

Went to lunch with my dear friend & fellow photographer who recently moved to Texas.  She brought me this gift & I love it!

Needed to shoot & edit something a little lighter, brighter & upbeat so I tossed our apples I just bought in our Halloween bucket and sat it in the grass...

We miss your smile, kind heart and laughter...so very much...

Cannot wait to watch this tomorrow night for the first time ever!  $1 Million up to a racer that can win all three races!  Wish Reed & Stewart were racing...but it will be good no matter what...

And yet again...another week down!  I hope ya'll have a good weekend.  Ours is busy and should be great. Thanks for stopping by...
