I love random posts.  It's easy just to go through my phone and pick pictures and upload them. Usually they are pictures that I really can't do a post on, just by one picture alone.  Quite possibly, they are my favorites and they tell a story all on their own.  Or they are pictures that I could make a whole post about and write and write forever, but I don't have the time to be blogging all the time.

For example:
This is probably my favorite picture in a long long time.  It makes me laugh.  It warms my insides.  It is silly and perfect.  It is the definition of my friendship with Kristi.  How we can send each other random snapchats from time to time, out of the blue, most of the time with no words, and we just GET IT.  This is awesomeness right here!

Or this one:

How we piled up at the kitchen table and played "Panopoly" as a family.  Sometimes when I am outside on the deck and I look inside the window and immediately I think of the song, "From my front porch looking in."  I get an overwhelming feeling of how lucky and blessed I am to have what I have and I have the people to share it with that I do.  Far more than I deserve and I know that every single day, but something about watching them from outside scurry around the house or all piled up on the couch watching TV, or even screaming at each other because because someone has the soft fuzzy blanket and the other three want it, makes my heart skip a beat. 

Or this picture that Larry took the night we took Molly to the primary school to show her who her Kindergarten teacher is going to be and who all is going to be in her class.  Her excitement about starting school, her sweet little arm around me as I am reading the names, and the fact that she is old enough to be starting school is about more than I can handle.

Or this picture Larry and I took when we went to Texarkana on our anniversary night.  Marriage is hard.  Life is hard.  You absolutely need someone to get you through the tough spots.  It's not always fun and I fail regularly, but I am very thankful for Larry and who we are and where we are right now. We are so different in so many ways, but I guess that is part of what makes it work.    

Or this sweet picture of these two little girls learning how to shoot their bows that Larry got them.  They are eager to learn and very competitive, which makes them really want to learn more.  I think showing them early will make them really good and more responsible later on in life, in so many more ways that archery or hunting, not to mention the time that he is spending with both of them.  This picture is from a video that I took of them shooting.  In the video, they are in sync like they have been doing this for years.  This is precious to me!
