Christmas 2012 with New Year Wishes

 

 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ♥ May 2013 bring you joy, peace, laughter and love.

 

 

Christmas is a time where family is brought together, laughter is poured out and the love is incredible. I always look forward to seeing everyone, this year was extra special, not only were we able to have Noah with us, Gabe was able to come home for the first time in years. He longs to be with his family, and I admire that, just seeing the happiness in his face was all I needed. We even got a chance to go up and play in the snow for a bit with the family, good times were had by all. Jesus is the reason for the Season, and he has certainly filled our hearts with so much joy.

 

We came home for Christmas Eve where Santa was waiting for Noah to go to bed so he could make his stop. This year was so much fun with him, and keeping the Santa spirit alive. His face when he came down stairs to see what he brought, was a priceless moment, I'm glad I peeked at him.

I know the desires of our hearts and the goal we are working twords, I hope this year continues to bless us in all aspects of our lives. Happy New Year to you may love, laughter faith and hope always prosper. God bless you, and keep you well.

 

 

A Love Story

The sweetest love story ever told, on Christmas Sonny and Jesse gave each one of their grandchildren a love note that included a special sweet with every verse. This by far is one of the greatest gifts, Noah is so loved and so blessed.

A Mario party but a Luigi fan from the start!

Noah celebrated his 6th Birthday today, surrounded by family and friends, we had a blast! This years theme was "Mario Bros." He chose to be Luigi today, he was such a cutie decked out in his Luigi hat and shirt. We had such a fun day with activities created by us like, stomp the chomp, Yoshi's egg race, pin the mustache on Mario, fire and ice power throwing game, and the bomb-omb! I'm so glad everyone came out to celebrate his birthday, we enjoyed every minute of the party. I'm exhausted, this getting older business is for the birds... I think I need a 1-up.

Fun Fetti candy pop corn!

Thanksgiving 2012

There is so much to be thankful for this year that I feel incredibly blessed. Blessed to be apart of such a loving family, blessed to have such great friends and blessed with a beautiful home that I share with my incredible husband and my little Noahbug. I thank God everyday for his blessings, and whatever he brings our way, I know it's his plan. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you from the Jackson family, man I love saying that!

A Grandpa: Not By Blood, But By Love. ♥

 

Psalm 73:26

 

My Grandpa Jim came into my life when my Dad and Mom Lori married, he loved me as one of his own grandchildren, and that will always be special to me.  He was a loving, caring and devoted man of God and his family. His dedication and his faith came through his daily living. You could see and feel the love in every smile he gave you. He was a pillar of strength, not only with his family, but within his church as well.

It is with great sadness that I say good-bye as he went home to be with the Lord today. It's hard to be so far away from your family during times like this. I will find comfort in the memories that I hold dear to my heart, his laughter, hugs (He had the best) and his warm presence will never be forgotten.

It is with great joy and faith that not by blood, but by love I had the privilege to call him Grandpa. I love you Grandpa Jim, you will forever hold a special place in my heart ♥
Philippians 1:3

I thank God upon every remembrance of you

Contemplating Photography

 

It's hard not to snap a beautiful picture when you're given such beauty to work with. I have a hidden passion for photography, while I enjoy capturing the moments, the reward is the picture itself. These are just a couple shots that speak volumes ♥

Mrs.Jackson

October 12, 2012 Ke'e Beach Kaua'i, Hawaii I became Mrs. Beverly Jackson and together the three of us have officially become a family. My heart is overjoyed with the love that surrounds our union ♥ I know that God has had his hand in our life and I thank him daily for bringing us together.
