Hundreds of Horses

This horsey post is in honor of a hilar dream I had the other night. My entire family was eating burgers (naturally) on this huge picnic table in the middle of one of our pastures, and all of a sudden I dramatically spit out my burger and yell "I JUST LET ALL THE HORSES OUT". We all look over our shoulders and there are hundreds of horses running toward this huge open gate. You know you grew up in East Texas when your nightmares include escaping horses. These pics are from an afternoon I spent with my little bro when I was in Longview over Christmas Break, enjoy! 

Heather and Gido

This is a wedding I got to help Jennefer Wilson shoot last fall, and I just never got around to posting my favorites. Be sure to check out the full post of Jenn's pics on her blog, they're flawless. This couple was super super great, and beyond precious together. There's a whole lot of love between these too.

Here are a couple of my favs from Heather and Gido's day!

Happy 2012

So late posting this, but ok hey happy new year! 

2011 was crazy huge, for many many reasons. But my favorite thing that made this year so fabulous was the fact that this little guy officially moved to the states to become a Fortner. The Lord is still continuing to do mountain-moving things because of this, in Max's heart, in the rest of my family, and in our home church in Longview. My parents have been asked to join a newly formed 'Pro Life' committee at Mobberly, and I am so excited that the church is being made more and more aware of adoption as an unsolved problem. But really, what's even better is that this awareness is leading to thoughts and prayers, which are leading to conversations, which are leading to action. Can't wait to see where He's going to lead different families in the future. Praying for the kids that are still waiting for families like these to step up and invite these precious faces to be a part of their home.

Here's to 2012, and all the new friendships, opportunities, and blessings that I know it will bring.
