:: this is the life ::
By Stephanie | December 17, 2009
7 more days until Christmas.
But I don’t feel frenzied or frantic.
I just feel happy. Unbelievably happy.
To be married to this talented, tender-hearted, tough guy:

And to get to spend every single day with two smart, sweet, stunning girls:

THIS IS THE LIFE.

And it is wonderful.
Beyond wonderful, actually.
Words simply can’t describe the fullness that is in my heart, in my life.

So cute! It makes me want to go take some family pictures in nature, too. Lance took some of us the other day, and I can’t wait for them to come back so we can see them. :)

I thought I commented on this already. I love the facial expressions in these pictures. Your girls are blessed to have parents like you and you are blessed to have them! I have been finding myself thanking God for giving me the two He has entrusted me with. They bring such joy!
