my life: one little gram of goodness at a time

What do you do with all those adorable photo cards that you get? I can't throw them away. For the past four years I've punched a hole in them and put them on a big ring. I LOVE Seeing families grow. Babies become kids. Dogs. Well dogs stay about the same. But it's the first thing I pull out when the season starts. Can't wait to see all the changes that come this year! (And now you know when you send me a photo card you get your money's worth!)

My #2015bestnine is spot on. It was the year of Eden. That started as baby ryelle. The only thing I would add is our epic trip to Oregon. Certainly the pay life changing year of my life. I can't wait to watch Eden grow in 2016!

She's all I've ever wanted 💗💗 along with her daddy of course. Merriest Christmas from our little family to yours.

Spending Christmas Eve with my other family.... Baughman/Driggger/Dresdow/Snider 💗💗 who could've dreamed this up 11 years ago when we all first met

Silent night. Holy night. #pseden #edengoestochurch (at Webster, North Carolina)

Mowgli likes to steal attention. Merry Christmas! #pseden #mowgliandleia

Merry Christmas Eve eve. So glad to be off a few days with my precious little family. Starting it off right.

Still amazed I get to call this beautiful little girl mine. #pseden

One day these two girls will call and have real conversations... I can't wait. #pseden #lilabbymac #maccuztwins #futurebestfriends

So so thankful my hubby brings my fussy baby to me at work. It makes my day to see her and be able to feed her once a shift. It means the world to me and makes the day so so much better. 💗💗 #pseden #yeaimreallyonthephone

It's hard work getting ready for a wedding.... #pseden #happilyeverarbelaez

I love my forever date. Yesterday was our eleven year "dateaversary"! 12.12.04 ry asked me to be his girlfriend. I could've never dreamed 11 years later I'd be at his sisters wedding with our beautiful daughter. It's been eleven amazing years! I love this guy so much more than I knew possible back then. @realryansnider you are the best. 💗 (at Savannah Station)
