A Special Thank You {to a Military Family}…
Nathan gave up a year of his life with Jen & Milly. Jen & Milly gave a year of their lives with Nathan. A year of smiles, laughter, skinned knees. A year of dreams. Tears. Hugs. School programs. Holidays. Days off. A year of lazy days, crazy days, calm days. A year of homework, Family suppers, chores. Things we take for granted because duties were calling for Nathan. To protect us all. So he did. He not only was protecting Jen & Milly anymore. He was to protect all of us.
How do I begin to repay them for their sacrifices? How could I say thank you to the three of them? It seemed like just saying thank you wasn’t enough. I wanted them to have memories that they could always look back on. Special moments, as a Family.
I just love the way Nathan is looking at me, and Jen & Milly are looking at him… Just melts my heart.

Milly, you are such a blessing to this world and everyone who knows you. You light the room up when you walk in.



I really am in love with Milly in these pictures….


Nathan is now home to protect his two fiery red-heads…
Wow, are these two girls pretty-

and now he is safe, surrounded by his girls.


With unlimited amounts of snuggle time with Milly….


Jen brought her guitar along and sang a song to Milly and Nathan as they shared some ice cold Izzy sodas. Yum!


I just love this picture of Jen. You are really, really pretty…

and I know Nathan thinks so also. Just look at the picture on the right. Amazing love.

Thank you so much for sharing your life with me. I am blessed to know you and to be able to call you Family. Thank you for all your sacrifices over the last year. Even though you can never get the time back, please know that your services are appreciated. We love you!
XOXO- Krissy
and for my very favorites. I will leave you in a Classic Meyers’ Family Style….
