Little Island Angel

This is a picture of a little girl who lives in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, (Marshall Islands) that Mamaw Renee "adopts" each year at Christmas.

This past week Renee got the big package mailed, as it takes a month or longer to reach there. Renee's brother lives and works on the island of Kwajalin (for the US government) which is part of the Marshall Islands. This little girls grandfather comes by boat from his island over to Kwajalin daily to work as locksmith on the base. They live very poorly with no electricity and very little extra water. Renee's brother told her that each year when this little girls grandfather receives and open the box from Kentucky, he always cries in appreciation. Renee always send gifts for the grandmother and grandfather as well. This little child may not have much all year long, but Christmas time is always very special because of Renee's big heart. Renee sends clothes, toys, cookies, candy, and many other treats. So, my note to Renee is; "I thought this good deed earned a mention on our brag page!"
So There!

America's Next Top Model

I do believe Emery was getting a little tired, but I loved these pics of her. She was modeling some of the hats and bows that her mom makes to sell. Brooke also makes pillow case dresses and tutu's and has plenty of cute things for sale. Of course, I think her beautiful little model is what makes her crafts sell so fast!

Giggy's Birthday 11-2-09

Matthew and Michael and their families came to go out to eat for my birthday. Brooke brought chocolate cake with candles and colorful polka dots(that Emery picked out.) We went for Chinese which I'd been kind of craving. It was really good. Boy oh boy, looking at these pictures ...."I'm OLD"........boo hoo.......
