Oh Stella!

After I met this little girl, I decided I had to use the name somehow in my life.  Stella makes the world go round.  She is what most would refer to as a character.  I refer to her as sunshine.

She has an equally adorable brother.  Such a lady killer at age 1.5

I met the Colsons not too long ago.  Chadlee, the hot momma I have known since we were prepubescent.  She is one of those girls I always wanted to be like.  I always wanted beautiful hair, a gorgeous smile, and freckles.  Chadlee is all that and a bag of chips.  She is so gorgeous and has a really fun personality to go with it.  She is charming and fun to be around.  Her husband completely scored when they married.

Her and her husband are getting ready for a big change.  No she is not pregnant again.  But he is in his last year of his schooling.  He will be going into practice medicine as a pediatric GI doc.  Yep, they have been in school FOR-EVER.  At the end such schooling, I can only imagine how exciting it is to be DONE.

I always admire families that go through such rigorous schooling and training.  They deserve all the respect and bucks they get.  You have more than earned it.

I love the light in this picture.   The Colsons photograph so well.  I am going bananas over these images.

Dear Stella, Chadlee and Colson men.  I had such a great time with your family.  Your daughter is so cute I had to use her name on something.  So I decided to name my favorite new tree after her.  Stella will always be out my front door, looking all sassy and beautiful.  Reminding me of a cutie pie little girl with lots of personality.

Best of luck to you wherever you end up.  That region will be getting a great doc and a precious family.  Lucky lucky them.
