I’d rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else.
I’d rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself.
I’d rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart.
I’d rather have the one who holds my heart.
I`d rather have you with me.
Just during the time I spent with them, I was witness to countless acts of services and moments of pure happiness.
I know that my wishes for happiness and love are not needed with a love like these two have, but I shall wish it anyways;
"I wish you both all the happiness and love this world has to offer!"
Though some family members were not physically there for this event, we know they were still present in spirit.
--- Mr. and Mrs. Hood ---
Trickey Photography can't wait to see what these two get into next! <3
We will be happily waiting to photograph.

One day this little thing will be a lady, a woman, a mentor, a friend, and a difference this world. Being a parent, you'll learn to never be proud of yourself, but of your child. You'll always feel like you're never doing enough, or they never have enough.
Here's a little hint: As long as they have love, that's all they will ever need!
Life is about being brave when the days are the darkest.
Life is about searching for kindness, just as a sunflower searches for the sun.
Life is about loving and being loved.
With parents like you two, this little goddess will be a shining example of all the glory life has to offer.

“Love is a partnership of two unique people who bring out the very best in each other and who know that even though they are wonderful as individuals, they even are better together.”
- By Barbara Cage
As anyone can tell you, there is a lot that goes into a great relationship...
Love. A Serving Heart. Honest Communication. Friendliness. Patience. Loyalty. A Common Purpose. & Fun!
This outstanding couple shows all these lovely qualities. You can see it from the first moment that you meet Ryan and Kimberly. They show so much passion and respect each other. There is no denying that they have created a relationship that most would die for. For the sake of those who have yet to find this kind of love, please hold on dearly. You are our hope!
--- Some of the things about their wedding that I personally loved, were all the fun details! ---
Thank you for letting me and my sister be a part of your lovely family for a day!
Please never forget to say, "I love you" and "I'm sorry".
Always try to be kind in all that you do and don't forget to take time to spoil each other!
(Easy tip: Fill the fridge will all their favorites)

Now it's my turn to write my boys a letter...
Dearest Carter and Myles,
My life would mean nothing without you! I know that is extremely strongly put, but it's true. Everyday you bring me so much joy and happiness, the likes in which I have never known. Plus, you are so stinkin' cute!
Carter, the other day you asked me if I found you a step-dad yet. You told me that I need to have someone to kiss and hug like your dad and step-mother do. Last night, you encouraged your brother to brush his teeth and get into bed, then proceeded to make sure I was warm on the couch. You tell me daily how much you love me and how pretty you think I am. You constantly want to hold and love on your brother and cousins. When people are sad, and cry around you, you wipe their tears and try everything possible to make them laugh. You are the goodness that all mankind should be. I am so in love with who you are!
Myles, oh Myles... Every morning, around 2 am, you run down the hall to make sure I'm in my bed. Then you run back to your room, grab your Seminole pillow and giraffe-y, and QUIETLY sneak into my room. (As if I would have no idea that you're coming). Every morning, I wake up to your wonderful, sweet face, and drool. You are so strong willed and brave in all that you do. You are my fighter and my rock. I love that right now your favorite joke is "your mom". You know that it will always make me laugh. Your ability to stay true to what you like and don't like, at such a young age is amazing. And your love for your friends and family is so matter of fact and pure. Watching you walk into your classroom every morning, is how I wish I walked into every situation in life; brave and kind!
All I want to do in life is to love and be loved by you.
Anything else in my life is just an added bonus. I love you more than I could ever express.

::DEAR LOVE BUGS::
Today is December 31st, 2016, and currently you two are sitting in my lap watching The Peanuts Movie. Neither of you have seen this before and are completely fascinated by it. I wanted to write this letter to you two in hopes that in 10 years time, you two could have an understanding of how much I cherish these times with you. My beautiful princess you are about to turn 7 and my sweet prince, you are just 3 1/2. I thought I could first wrote about who each of you are and then tell you what I wish for you in the future.
My Princess, you are so very funny, and smart and you have a heart of gold. You love to pretend to be a teacher and a mommy to your baby doll Alivia and your brother. You are my first born and I am so glad that God gave me you, you showed me what it truly means to be a mom, we have had ups and downs (even at 7 years young) and I know we will have many more. You love to sing and dance, and your smile can light up a room. I hope for your future that you achieve every dream you wish. I hope that for our future you still come to me and talk to me about everything that's on your mind. (As long as you are not tattling on your brother.) My princess, I hope that you keep your innocence and your passion.
My Prince, you are so sweet and sensitive. You love playing with your cars, Paw Patrol pups, and dinosaurs. You try so hard to do the things your sister does, but don't quite understand that you aren't old enough yet. You have no fear and yet, you always are worried about monsters in the closet. (Good thing I have an awesome supply of Go Away Monster! Spray) I hope love, that when you are older that you are still a sweet, sensitive and fearless young man. I thank the Lord every day that he blessed me with you.
I hope that as you both get older that you go on as many adventures as possible, I hope that you both continue to love and cherish each other, as you do now. I hope that you both protect and stand up for each other if need be. You two come from families that will always put family first, we may all fight and bicker and annoy each other, but at the end of the day we are always going to protect each other. You have parents who will love and raise you two to be the best person you can be. You have grandparents who will always spoil you and take you on adventures, you have aunts and uncles who will show you what life is really about. You both have brothers who will also be there to share this life with. I hope that one day both of you will understand that people are not perfect and that sometimes we make mistakes. I hope that in the future that you don't fault me for the choices I made, even ones you don't quite understand yet (even in 10 years). Mommy is not perfect, and it's okay that I'm not.
The number one thing in my life is to make sure that you are loved fully and to bring as many adventures, happiness, sadness, and joy to help mold your life into one that you can tell your future families about.
You're everything I never knew I always wanted.
With all of the love my heart can hold,
::MOMMY::
