{Instagram Friday}


It has been a weird week, hasn't it? Such a mix of sadness and grief over last Friday's tragic shooting, blended with joy and anticipation for what we are going to be celebrating in a few days.

I've struggled this week with a lot of anxiety...worried about the safety of my boys...taking them to school for the first time since the shooting. I know it was a similar week for parents all over the country.

And then there are those parents that didn't have their children come home to them a week ago. And well, there are just no words. Just prayers and tears. A lot of both.

And so I look back through my week of photos with an abundance of gratitude, and I'm also humbled by the blessings I continue to enjoy. Here are just a few...

We took the boys to Burger King and Landon said "I'm a wise man!" Love how they talk about the Christmas story on a daily basis...


Landon enjoying his "negg nog"...


 My teeny tiny bathtub cowboy Ben...


It doesn't get much better than staring a morning off with donuts and Home Alone...


I love this goofy boy...his sense of humor is already beyond his years...


Enjoying some lap time with Miss Chloe...


The boys had a PJ party at school and requested footies...they were SO cute! They haven't worn footies since they were babies. :) And I promise they were excited. ;)


I made some fun gift tags for our Christmas gifts...


Landon was mesmerized by the washing machine..."look at the bubbles Momma!"


I enjoyed a "new to me" necklace yesterday...


And a fresh hair cut and color...MUCH needed :)


And Melvin got some lap time last night...I love how he always has his paws crossed...


What did your week look like?
