Father dearest...

Dad, Daddy, Daddy-O, Father, Poppy, G-Funk, Papa

Today is your day of birth and what a blessed day it is.

This man is by far one of the most amazing men in my life. My dad is truly one of my heros... There are so many qualities that I fully admire about him. He is hardworking. Never gives up. Is constantly doing what needs to get done. Loves our family. Knows pretty much everything. Is completely humble. Willing to help when needed. Can fix ANY problem or anything. Is right there when you need him. You can talk to him about anything. and he is one of the greatest friends that you could ever ask for. Poppy, thanks for being one of my greatest examples and always taking care of me! I love you so much and I hope your day is so great!

It's your world...

This past week definitely was one of the greatest!

I had the opportunity to go see the boy...

North Carolina is BEAUTIFUL! The trees, the mountains, especially the people! He was kind enough to introduce me to his world and it was spectacular!

I was honored to have the privilege of meeting of his family and I absolutely fell in love with them. His family is seriously amazing! His "Merm", aka Laurin, is such an outstanding lady! She has so much love for her kids and it definitely shows! She has such a strong presence and is truly a wonderful individual. I freaken adore his sisters to death! Both amazing young women! Kallie is such a cute girl! Full of life and love for those close to her. Paige is so great! She has such a sweet spirit and a huge heart. I also met both sets of Grandparents.They were all so welcoming and so excepting. Constantly feeding me and sending me off with yummy sweets! I am truly grateful for their hospitality and their loving nature!

The week really went by all too quickly.

I loved being with him and seeing the place he calls home.

He truly lights up my life and makes me feel so adorned and loved!!
