One on One

 I love spending time at Disney at the holidays. There is something truly magical about it. Maybe its the decorations, or maybe it is being schedule free in a place that oozes happiness with the people you love most. Here are some of my favorites from the Christmas season. 

Skatin with Dad

Sometimes all you need is some skating with with dad. I love this little tradition they have together. 

 

Family Fun

I always drag the family out for a yearly photo. As the girls get older, it has gotten significantly easier in some aspects, and harder in others. But this year there were no tears or stress and I think we look like a million bucks. 

Sister time 

I hope they always stay close no matter where life takes them. 

Lucy, age 10. My kind, gentle spirit. 💗

Vera, age 13

This captures her personality to a tea. She's beautiful on the inside as well as the outside 💗

Then we decided to get silly and take an awkward family photo; I think we nailed this.  

Matthew and his girls

Just me and my girls. 

 

An Anderson Thanksgiving

Its always special spending time with family. But this Thanksgiving was extra special because Kamdyn was a senior in high school and she will soon be off on her own amazing journeys. I just love these for beautiful young ladies. 

Of course Lucy had to get Uncle Richard into the holiday spirit by decorating his beard with ornaments. 

Proudly displaying his festivity for all to see

There was plenty of snuggle time too. I forgot how chilly it can be once you leave Florida. 

Best people around.

 So thankful for my family and the gift of time with them. They are simply the best.

And just like that, she’s 13! 

Veve,

Being your mom has been the best adventure I could’ve ever hoped for. God certainly blessed us beyond all measure when He gave us you. You are fiercely kind and independent. You are a hard worker, and extremely humble. You are stubborn, silly, and not afraid to be who God made you to be! I am so proud of the young lady you are becoming. But more important than any of that is that you have a heart for Jesus. It is my prayer that you put Him first in your life, and always look to Him to be your guide. May He always be the reason for the joy you have. Ve, you are so loved! Welcome to your teenager years.

Happy 13th Ve! We love you beyond measure
