This was such a great two days and we’re so thankful to have been close enough to celebrate with family.  My brother, Mark, came back from college on the 27th so we had our family celebration the 28th/29th all together.  Us four Nolls went and spent the night at mom and dad’s house and had a great time.  We don’t know when we’ll be together again for this holiday, or even when we will live in the same country together, so we truly treasured this time to be with our Iverson family.  

Thank you, Lord, for such a special time and for the blessing of living close to family!

    Are you scratching your head for what fashion items to buy the most important little girl in the world? When it comes to children clothes for girls, there is so much to choose from. the most important thing to remember is check with the parents before purchasing, they may already have the item, have brought the item as a present, or not want the child to have that item. A great gift that you can create, and maybe eat later.
