Best. Present. Ever.

On Monday night I got the best birthday present ever. Back in March my kids got their pictures taken by the oh so talented Karina (you should see her latest post). One of my favorites was the foot picture. I thought it would go perfectly in my upstairs TV room. Well, unfortanately for me, but fortunate for Karina, everyone else realized how awesome she was and she was booked from then on out. But Kim pulled some strings and got the picture, then she and Trent had it framed. I was so surprised to say the least. Trent said he has never seen me react that way to a gift before (and Trent has given me some pretty amazing gifts!). I was screaming and jumping and couldn't be any happier.

I love it. Absolutely love it.
Doesn't it just go perfectly in that space?
Thank you, thank you, thank you Kimmy for thinking of this gift. I find myself just sitting in the kitchen staring at is. It is perfect. And thanks to Karina for taking and editing the pic, even with your super busy schedule. And thanks to Trent for helping Kim put it together. It really made my 30th birthday one to remember!!!

It was all Kim. I just jumped on the train once she told me what she had planned. My favorite part of this picture is that all the kids are blury. Even when they are watching TV they are still in motion. And I do love how it turned out. It looks awesome.

There really is something about that picture - capturing all those busy, growing feet/toes while they're so little. I'm sure they already have grown so much. Kind of sad almost. It's a darling picture, it looks awesome framed, and that is the perfect place for it. I love it!
