Kindness of Strangers



Mia was picked as a service project from a Girls Running Club in Pennsylvania called Girls on the Run...they made Mia their honorary Coach, and mailed her hand made ornaments to hand out to patients at the hospital. How sweet is that!?! They even made a special one for our neighbor Ken, Thank you Shahonna for thinking of Mia!!!

Horsing Around


Mia's new sport...riding horses!! This girl just loves horses and always has since she was little. What a blessed girl to be able to have lessons now at Welcome Home Ranch.


Sure she loves this big guy named Buck. Two peas in a pod.

Through Macy's...if you write a letter to Santa and mail it at Macy's, they will donate $1.00 to Make A Wish...and the Phoenix Mercury will match them!! Ahhhh yeah. We wrote a lot of letters!!!

Doctor Appt.


This was kind of a big doctor appointment with our new Endocrinologist. Who is fabulous by the way and the doctor loves Stars Wars. So it was fitting that Dad came along...


Mia checking out the light saber in the glass case. Pretty legit.
