They say if it rains on your wedding day it means good luck.
This must be true when having a baby,
because it rained the day Courtney was born,
 I felt like I was the luckiest mom to lucky to get this little GIRL!

I could tell from the second she was born, that she was a sweetie,
the pink bow looked so pretty in all that dark hair, & after my first
two babies were boys, I made sure she always had the bow in her hair.
The nurses kept asking me if my husband was Indian.
Hummm I wonder why?

Pretty in pink.

Courtney Loved playing house,

7th birthday
Courtney with her best friend, & cousin Karli,
these two were together non stop, they are more like sisters.
Well since their moms are identical twins, they are considered 1/2 sisters.

There's no place like home.
Courtney filled our home with so much joy,
we can't imagine what it would be like without her.
