Miss. Renee' Joy -

Dear Renee' Joy -
Happy 13th birthday, darling!!
I can't believe you are 13...WOW! :D
I hope you had such a fun day yesterday,
I would've put this up then, but I don't post on Sundays,
and ... it wasn't ready. haha. :D

I can't believe how many birthdays
we've had in a row here on the blog!
Kind of like the amount of weddings in a row. :D
All these pictures are from wedding trips!

Renee Joy, it's been a delight to see you
grow up into a young lady, sweet and graceful,
tender, loving, generous, and obedient to God.
I thank God for the time that He has allowed
for us to spend together, on trips and at our houses.
You are a special girl, and I love you so much!!

I hope you enjoy scrolling down through some
sweet and hilarious memories! :D
(these are all from weddings in '09 in MO!)

and lovely at this age...I mean, I wasnt!haha!)

Dear girl.

We were exploring a very deep mine shaft.
Ok. We weren't. We were on a playground,
and were descending into a tunnel, but that's what
I SAID we were doing. Which is why she's laughing at me.

Happy 13th birthday, Renee Joy, and
may God continue to grow you into a woman
who finds her ultimate joy and worth in Jesus Christ!
