Fun Snail Mail

So much to do and so little time. Have you noticed how everyone is really busy? I’m beginning to believe if you’re not busy, then something it’s right, normal.

My husband and I are tired. Working on family matters that are stressful and draining. The good part- we are now beginning to see through the tough times and the light is beginning to shine. Well just the other day, my mother-in-law sent us a post card. She addressed the envelope to both my husband and I- however, the letter was to me.

As you can see from the above image, I cracked up after reading her message. Just what I needed. Laughter is good for the soul!

If you can, take out that old fashioned pen and paper and write someone a cheerful note. They will not only enjoy hearing from you, but you will leave an everlasting memory for them to cherish.

Parker Family 2014


Last weekend was a fun day for me. Spending time with my daughter, son-in-law and grandbaby! Briella is now 2. Do you know how difficult it can be photographing a two year old? Well, I had 20 good seconds with her and she was finished. Done.

That’s when I started taking images of Erika and Shaune. Oh how that caught Brie’s interest. After watching her parents, Briella wanted to join. The images turned out great- enjoy!

My grandmother went to stay with grandpa Valentine’s Day – February 14, 2014. Love endures. Back early in February I asked my dad if he would ride with me to visit grandma. Sure he replied. Grandma had taken a turn for the not too well and I knew if I wanted to see her, it should be soon. We headed out on Thursday morning, visiting with grandma early evening.

Her hair just done with her make up on, she was beautiful! We asked many questions, reminiscing of her and grandpa’s early years. She could recall the address of her home some 68 years past. We had a wonderful visit. That evening her wish came true- she went to sleep.

Bittersweet. At her funeral, I was blessed to spend time with family who live states apart. Some it had been years since I had seen them last. We shared laughs and tears. A time I will treasure.
