Happy Birthday Elissa!


Today is our darling girl's 17th birthday! We are so thankful to the Lord for his blessing of such a daughter. I know her brothers are also very thankful for such a sister! Elissa is the sunshine in our home. We pray that Elissa will continue to walk closely with the Lord each day and continue to strive to be a Proverbs 31 woman.

We have had a blessed day so far. We surprised her this morning with the fact that her Daddy had the day off. I think that was her favorite gift! ;o) So far we have had a tea breakfast, opened gifts and lunch, we are off to watch one of the movies that she received this morning and then we are going to play games. Then her favorite dinner and cheesecake for dessert.


Breakfast with Daddy.



Elissa and Seth. Seth told her she looked like a princess. ;o)


I love this look on her face! I think she was excited to get the Il Divo Cd!


Elissa with her gifts.

We love you Lizard and we hope that your day is special and blessed!
Love, Daddy, Momma, Bubba and Seth

Dear Heather,

Happy belated Birthday to Elissa!!!! She is a beautiful young lady, and a godly one, too!!!! I love her dress! She looks just like a Jane Austen heroine. I love how Seth told her she looked like a princess! You can see how he adores her, and just look at Daddy holding her hand. I can see how much he loves her and how proud he is of her, as I know you are! How neat that her and Justin have a birthday one day apart! Adam also took off work for Justin's birthday, and it was such a happy day for all of us. Elissa's gifts all look wonderful, and she is gorgeous!!! I know the Lord has wonderful plans for her!

Many blessings to you and your sweet family dear Heather!

Love, Paula
