~So ThankFul~

Its Thanksgiving! This year I have definitely realized who and what i am thankful for. The #1 people who stick by my side through all my mistakes, trials, and hardships, My family. I am so blessed for my parents they are always there to help me and when I'm having a hard time they are always my shoulder to cry on. I'm so thankful for my sister, her husband Brent, and my little niece London, My sister is such an example to me, i look up to her so much, and Brent is such a cute daddy always there to help my sister and after raising Hallie alone i really appreciate men like that. Austin is such an amazing kid, so smart! he could get into any college he wants, hes so good at staying away from things hes not supposed to do. and kaden he is such a fun kid and reminds me so much of myself. And my Hallie girl i am so blessed she was sent to me, every time i look at her i become a better person, the person i want to be, she has made me so strong and independent i wouldn't be who i am without my baby girl...I am so blessed and so thankful to have such a wonderful family, a job that works perfect with being a mommy, and everything i could ever ask for. Thank you to everyone for sticking by my side this year. I love you and i am truly thankful for you.

The Love Of My Life

3 years ago was the best day of my life. I am such a lucky and proud mommy to have been blessed with such a smart, sassy, loving little girl. She is the best thing that has ever happend to me. She acts like she 15 and even has the attitude she will never let anyone mess with her! She has me wrapped around her little finger along with her gram, papa, and all of her uncles. I realized after her birthday her closset is verrry full! her shoe rack has no room! and her playroom is packed!! And its not even christmas yet! but she deserves ever bit of it! I love you Hallie Nicole Ricks!

Halloween!

This year was a blast because hallie new what halloween was! she was the cutest little pirate ive ever seen! she totally was not her outgoing self tho! she would put her basket by the door and run away. she wouldnt even say trick or treat! i guess her mommy has taught her right not to talk to strangers!
