Count Your Blessings...







Counting my blessings...
always starts with these 5.









Name them one by one...
Count your blessings,
see what God hath done...
Count your blessings,
Name them one 
by one.
count your many blessings,
see what God hath done





Today is Kevin's birthday.
Our youngest blessing is turning 23 today.
He makes us laugh
He makes us cry
He makes us ask ourselves
why.
The sad truth is,
I did not take as many pictures 
of Kevin as I did the others.
...but I have lots of pictures
of Kevin 
scattered here and there,
doing what he does best...

being Kevin.

Happy Birthday to a very special young man!

    These pictures make me wish I knew this Huebner better. I wish that about all the Huebners. They are a great family! Happy Birthday Kevin!

    Hahahahah, I went back and looked at all of those pictures, and sure enough, the fence climber had on a wedding ring, and in other pictures, Kevin is wearing tennis shoes! Duh. I am a dork!

    Did you take that picture off? I don't see any fence climbing. Love this post. LOVE the picture of him and Annalie looking at each other. What a great Uncle Kev!

    Some families just have too much fun...

    Wishing for lighter days in my household and celebrations all the more. I had my last chemo today, and I eagerly await for the return of my energy.

    Thanks for sharing your family's precious memories with us.

    peace`elaine
