Celebrate the Small Things- December 2, 2016


It's Friday!  Let's Celebrate the Small Things with Lexa Cain!  Tonja Drecker and I are her co-hosts.

We had a tornado on Monday.  That's kind of crazy for the end of November in Iowa.  The tornado was pretty small, and while there was some property damage around town, no one was hurt.  We got lucky and didn't have any damage at our house.  Our little town made the news over the whole thing. You can check that out here and here.

For those of you who don't know yet, I had a baby girl on November 22nd.  We named her Zoe Jane.  My friend Chelsea, who's good enough to make a living as a professional photographer, came by over the weekend and took some newborn photos.  I thought I'd share a few of them with you. Selecting a handful to share is difficult, because they're all amazing.





What would you like to celebrate?

    Congratulations! She's a pretty girl.
    Scary about the tornado. That is really late in the year to get one.

    Congratulations on your new daughter. What a cutie. Even a small tornado sounds pretty grim to me. We rarely get them here and when we do it keeps the press going for days. Have a lovely weekend.

    Joyful news and delight at seeing the photos - congratulations to you both :) My niece was caught up in the drama of a tornado in Wales just the other week and they really are rare over here in Britain! Luckily she and her student house were fine and she had a story to tell. Special Teaching at Pempi’s Palace
