I had the best time with these precious babies yesterday! I haven't seen them since Diane's 40th birthday, and they have both grown so much! It's amazing, Bella is growing so fast & Wynn is almost as tall as she is!

So cute! Bella didn't want Wynn on her tricycle!

He's almost there!

Dawn & Frank, you guys have a beautiful family! Thank you so much for the fun day! Can't wait to see ya'll on the 16th!

Holly & Ben Chaney

Josh & I had so much fun with Holly & Ben last Sunday. Holly & I went to high school together, however I had not seen her in years! And thanks to Facebook, we reconnected a few years ago. Since we both ~LOVE~ photography, we decided to get together to take pics.

Ben was being shy & didn't want to smile. But, thankfully I was able to snag a few good pics of him.

So sweet~ I love this one!

And this too! Ben loves his mama!

Ben was playing & I just happened to shoot this one~

One of my favorites~

Another favorite! Can't decide!

A boy & his socks!

Being Sweet

This is for you Ben! Thought you would like the cartoon effect!

New Year...New YOU!!!!

January is a time that we often mark a "clean slate" in our life. While some of us will start eating healthier, exercising, there is one thing that's been on my mind lately. It seems that everytime I turn around, someone I know is going through a tough time.

Everyone in life has been effected by someone who has hurt them in one way or another. Then we get mad, we want revenge. Then we hold a grudge......and no matter what it consumes our life and its all we think about.

We spend so much time dwelling on the past, that we can't look ahead.

How can you look ahead while constantly looking in the rear view mirror?

If you feel that someone has done you wrong, the best thing to do is to forgive them. As hard as it is to do, it's the best thing to do. Right now, I am struggling with forgiveness, but why should I allow that person to have power over me?

Oh no....That person doesn't deserve power over me and my life.

The below is something that I received via email while going through a tough time in my life. And I often refer back to it.

“The Gift of Goodbye” T. D. Jakes …

There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk. I don’t want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can’t make them stay. LET THEM GO! And it doesn’t mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you’ve got to know when people’s part in your story is over so that you don’t keep trying to raise the dead. You’ve got to know when it’s dead. You’ve got to know when it’s over. Let me tell you something. I’ve got the gift of goodbye. It’s the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in goodbye. It’s not that I’m hateful, it’s that I’m faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He’ll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don’t need it. Stop begging people to stay. LET THEM GO! If you are holding on to something that doesn’t belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to… LET THEM GO! If you are holding on to past hurts and pains… LET THEM GO! If someone can’t treat you right, love you back, and see your worth… LET THEM GO! If someone has angered you… LET THEM GO! If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge… LET THEM GO! If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction… LET THEM GO! If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents… LET THEM GO! If you have a bad attitude… LET THEM GO! If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better… LET THEM GO! If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship……. LET THEM GO! If you keep trying to help someone who won’t even try to help themselves… LET THEM GO! If you’re feeling depressed and stressed… LET THEM GO! Get Right or Get Left, think about it, and then…
LET THEM GO!

XOXO,

Dana

To my sweet friend Melissa.....

I know 2012 was a bittersweet year for you.

You married the love of your life and you lost someone so precious to you, your Daddy.

But, no matter what, we have always been there for each other through thick & thin~bad hairstyles, hideous bridesmaid dresses, crappy marriages and all.

And no matter what, I can always depend on you. Thank you so much for everything you do for me. 2013 will be a better year, my sweet friend!

Here are a few pics of us through the years.....thought you may need a good laugh :-)

Middle school maybe? We were looking like a hot mess!

At our 20 year class reunion- Sept 2012

I snapped this pic of ya'll at a chorus concert, right before your wedding.

11th or 12th grade after school

2012- A Year in Pictures

I can't believe it's already 2013! I wanted to post a few of my favorite pics of 2012. All of them are my favorite, but unfortunately, I can't post them all! To quote Josh "I bet you have 5,000 pictures of me" and he is right!

Enjoy!
