Sweet Momma Time

So, in case the WONDERFUL surprise of my sister, Joe, and cutie baby nephew Brannon wasn't enough, my beautiful MOM surprised me in Alaska :) :)

JOY, JOY, JOY. My heart is so happy when with family.

Over labor day weekend, I was camping with Tony's family at Eklutna Lake, and my mom just strutted out walking by! Took me a second glance until I realized it was my sweet mom!!

Tony was in California over the weekend for a softball tournament, so my Mom and I got to spend some time camping with the Luikens, then spending the rest of the weekend together. We went biking, made salmon, snuggled up and watched movies, and mostly just had good mother daughter time together. 

I also got to show her the house that Tony and I made an offer on and we went furniture shopping which was fun! I miss my Mom. It is hard being away from her. But the sweet joy when I see her is indescribable. Love this incredible woman of God who has such a servant hearted personality and loves to give and give.

Beautiful Alaska Fall.

Enjoying the colors of autumn.

Mom hugs.

Got to show my mom my classroom!! What a wonderful experience. She also helped me grade some papers :)

Love Alaskan Fall colors.

Of course, my mom had to try out my new bike!

We took a trip to the Alaska State Fair! Got to see some giant pumpkins.

We made some cookies and cream ice cream together with my ice cream maker attachment! 

Love my Mom.

We enjoyed our last day by the ocean! :) Love you momma.

Proverbs 31:26-31 "She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: Many woman do noble things, but you surpass them all." Charm is deceptive , and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised."
