HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BEST SISTER TRICIA!
It was her Birthday on December 28th and I am late in making this post for her, but I want her to know how much I love and adore her. She is the best! I am sooooooooooo lucky to have the two best sisters and best friends in the world! Tric lives far away in Houston Texas and I miss her SOOOOOOOOOOO much! We talk on the phone daily. We solve the worlds problems, laugh hysterically, and cry all at the same time. I love you so dang much Tric! I can't wait to see you soon! I hope you had a great birthday and I can't wait to celebrate with you either at Taco Amigo or Scone Cutter, and KICKING your butt at Candace and Jim's playing tennis on the Wii! Candace totally kicked mine the other day, but Jac and I are going to get one and I am going to practice and then kick hers someday! HEEEHEEE!!!
LOVE YOU SISTAH!

HO HO HO, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I want to wish all our family and friends a very Merry Christmas. We have had a very eventful year. We welcomed a new addition to our family. Phin joined our family on July 10, 2008. He is the most adorable and sweet little boy. We all adore him very much. Ele has grown up to be such a big girl. She is three and a half. She has made some very big mile stones this last year. She gave up her Shnoolie, (binkie), is completely potty trained, and loves to go to her nursery class at church alone! We are so proud of her and love her very much. She is the best big sister to Phin and helps us with him all the time.
Jac and I both feel so blessed. We have been through some tuff times this year, but have come through this year much better and stronger. Life isn't always easy, but the hard times make us stronger.
I love my husband with all my heart. He is a great husband, father, and best friend. I can't imagine where I would be in my life without him. He is amazing, l am so lucky to have him. He puts up with a lot with me, and I love him more then words can say.
So, I hope you all can look back on this last year and feel as grateful for what you have as I do.
I love Christmas and what it means. I hope I can teach my children that it is not about the presents and treats. It is about Christ and what he gave to us. That is the best gift of all. I feel The Lord's love every day when I look at Jac and our kids.
So as you reflect on your blessings this last year, I hope you all can be grateful for your family as much as l am for mine.
I hope you all know that you are all in my thoughts and l love you all very much. Merry Christmas from our family to yours.
