Ready for Spring and Summer...

... So we can PLAY OUTSIDE! =)

I'm so excited for Jacob to run and play outside for some reason

Better late then never... Christmas 2009

Christmas Tradition:

My mom and I make homemade chocolates

for our friends and family

Christmas Eve:

My parents came over and we had a nice dinner

and opened gifts from each other.

I love his Sponge Bob Christmas Jammies

Christmas Morning:

I blinded him with the flash when I went to get him up =)

We had a wonderful breakfast with Josh's dad's side of the family

and then spent the evening with Josh's mom's side of the family

It's hard to get a good picture of him when he wont stand still =)

My lot! Josh spoils me!!!

Grandpa gave him his first remote control car

Hum... I just noticed that I didn't take any pictures of anyone else but Jacob...

it's all about Jacob I guess =)

Quick look at Christmas 08-09

Santa's little Helper

I cry every time

I'm not even kidding, every time this commercial comes on TV I cry like a BIG baby! Jacob is taking a nap right now and all I want to do is go in his room and hold him cause it's sooo touching.

I'm thankful for Thanksgiving!

I found this video on someone else's blog, but it made me feel the spirit so strongly that I couldn't not pass it along. (Thanks Rachel!)

I'm over whelmed with gratitude for all the many blessings in my life. They are very personal to me so I have been keeping a gratitude journal since November 1st and every night I write at least 5 things that I am thankful for and this has really brought about a huge change in my heart. I know that I am truly rich with blessing.

Thank you for reading our blog and keeping up with our little family.

I hope that all your Thanksgivings are rich with gratitude, love and heart warming memories.
