Spotlight Sunday ~Anya~



Anya Marissa

December 10, 1986

It is hard to believe, that our little Christmas baby is 22 years old and in her senior year of College. She was truly the easiest baby. She never cried and was always ready for a long nap!!! She is a joy in our family, always kind and looking for the best in everyone around her!! Howard and I are very proud of the beautiful young women she has become!!



3 months old.


I thought she was going to be a redhead!!!


Look at that sweet little face!! She was such a wonderful little girl.

Always the best big sister


Anya 8 years old with new baby Evan. (It was love at first sight!)

There isn't a witchy bone in Anya's body!!!!



Anya loves the beach!! She decided to try Evan's skim board, she was very good at it!!!


Anya, senior year with some of her best friends.....
She was very lucky to have a large group of friends. They still try to get together when they are home.
