January 2021 New Beginnings


I cherish the time we get over the holidays with friends and family to make memories and rest and I eagerly anticipate what a new year will bring.   Although 2020 threw more curve balls than we ever dreamed with the pandemic we survived and were blessed.   We are believing that for this year as well.  

This verse is always on my mind as we enter New Years and new seasons of life. 

My parents were able to come in the first part of January and we celebrated Christmas too.  

Snagging a pic with my love! 


Annual plastic wrap ball with all kinds of fun prizes.   

We ventured downtown for some pinball action (adults), climbing wall fun (kids), and lunch together.  






regardless of how allergic she is, she still wants to snuggle the cats. 

Gracie is doing great!! 

Rotten puppy! 


She keeps working hard at PT 






 creative use of the brace! 

Classic Gracie PT face when she is anxious, not really hurting. 




Back at the gym working on upper body strength, but still feels good. 

teenage life-- coffee, phone and a sweatshirt! 


Maggie is doing well and hit a big milestone with braces! 

Before and after!  So stinking cute! 



o that hair! 


Random snow flakes 

She has her own style!  And loves crafting! 



Some days are just exhausting 

I love that braces smile! 

home sick one day with a horrible head cold.  Lots of sweet snuggles while I worked.  I love the flexibility to be home especially on days like this. 

So... Gracie had ordered one monkey end of October for Maggie's Christmas gift and by early December it did not come (we found out it was shipping from China and they refunded it and said it may still come).  So we hunted around and found another one that would be here for Christmas.  Then the first one came.   Lol.  she was so excited.   The one on the left is the one that shipped from China. 


A few Bella pics for fun. 



Puppachino from Starbucks! 

Puzzle time! 





We got a cool new restaurant in Ooltewah, Whistle Stop.  It is an old time restaurant with some yummy desserts too! 


Grammy and Papa met us for lunch after church.
