I feel that, especially in light of some of more recent posts, my blog is lacking....HAPPINESS.

Sooo....I'm going to show you some of my very favorite pictures......

This is Gracie. She's my cousin's baby and she's the MOST amazing addition to the women in our family. I'm so grateful for her.

This is a picture of my teacher buddies the day AFTER the last day of school. We took a school bus to Fast Eddie's where fun times ensued! It was pretty amazing!

This is the fam in FL ...on the pool deck: my aunt Tracy, Cisco the dog, me, Uncle Jeff....then in the back is my cousin Kyle, Mom, Dad, Kristabelle (bro's g/f) and my brother Mark
This is a favorite memory from North High...from left to right are Shawn, Zach, Jake and Jeff, four extremely talented young men singing "Man of Constant Sorrow" as the "Squishy Bottom Boys"This is me and my brother, Mark, with Grandma at Easter. She beat breast cancer and colon cancer only to lose the battle against lung cancer....she was an amazing, strong, warm woman.
Braxton is my right hand man/manager/assistant coach/keeper of the sanity/creator of good ideas....and organizer of bonfires!
I've had him in 3 classes and have claimed him as my own....THE Jeff Smith
My family. Starting at the left and going around...Mark (brother), Uncle Jeff, Dad, Kyle (cousin), me, Mom, Rick and Donna Niblett (cousins and professional photographers...studio on Mexico Rd...they're amazing!)
