This is a look Grisham often gives us.
He's SO silly!

My wonderful boys.....

My baby was so tired and not feeling well, so he fell asleep sitting up next to me. I love my kids with everything I have in me and can't imagine life without them! I am so blessed!!!

Our "New" New Years Tradition

Last year we did something as a family that we enjoyed so much, that we decided to make it a tradition! At the beginning of 2009, we sat down as a family and wrote out our predictions for what we thought would happen with our family before 2010. Then, during Christmastime, we sat down and got out that paper and read our predictions. It was an amazing, funny thing to read. I know that these pieces of paper will be treasured for many years to come. I think I will highlight all of the predictions that actually came true. I was so surprised at how many of mine actually happened in 2009.


Here are a few of my predictions from the beginning of 2009.


I will become a Scentsy Director. I came so close. Only one level away. I am very proud of that accomplishment.

Aaron will change jobs. He was part of a layoff at Clear Channel. He was unemployed for 5 months and is now a Sales Manager at Aaron's Rentals.

Aaron and I will be involved in church in ways we have not thought of. While Aaron was unemployed, we stepped out in faith and joined a leadership group at our church that cost us $400. God is doing great things in our lives.

We will have an awesome family vacation. Just after Aaron got let go from Clear Channel, we decided to take a vacation to Tennessee. We had a great time!


Feel free to make this a tradition with your own family. It is so much fun and a great way to make memories!

CHRISTMAS PICTURES

So excited about Christmas!

I'm very happy that we decided to stay here in KY to celebrate Christmas together by ourselves. Sometimes you just need to focus all your love and attention on your immediate family. Sure I love the rest of my family SO much, but there's nothing like waking up at your own house, watching the faces of your children as they tear open their presents. It just brings so much peace, being able to stay home in our pjs all day if want to, eat whatever we want for dinner, whenever we want to. I'm really looking forward to Christmas this year!!! Today I took the boys to the mall for Santa pictures. Grisham just stared at him and was very content in his lap. Then we got their Christmas pictures taken. I know it's kind of late for that, but that's ok. I didn't buy many this year and I kept it simple. Trying to simplify a lot of things in my life. I want to keep the reason for this season close to our hearts. This is a time to reflect on the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ and to remember all that He went through so that we could be saved. It just makes me smile to think about how much He loves us!

From our family to yours, Merry CHRISTmas and a happy New Year!!! May God richly bless your life in 2010 and always!!!

I'm feeling really good right now! I am healed in Jesus name! My mom and cousin came for a visit and stayed the night and went to church with us this morning. I had a great Scentsy party yesterday and will have another one next Saturday! I made SuperStar consultant last month. :0) I feel closer to Jesus than I have in a really long time. I am SO thankful to feel this way again and it's not just because things are going well. I am just able to focus more on the positives again BECAUSE of my relationship with Jesus Christ! I am thankful to be so blessed and to be able to be a blessing to others!

This is what the sky looked like while we were Trick-or-treating on Halloween. I commented on how it looked kind of freaky. Then Gavin said, "No MAN, don't come back yet. I need to eat my candy first." Anyone who is a Christian will easily understand what he was referring to! ;0)

He can't even walk yet, but he can get ANYWHERE!!!
