Merry Christmas to you and yours, from me and mine.

I’m most thankful today that this year has brought us great spiritual growth and a more personal relationship with our Savior, Jesus. This year we celebrate his birth, but also our loving relationship with him that has a new breath and life within our home and in our lives. On this day it’s easy for me to reflect back over the last year and see how much closer we have become to our Lord, how much more time we’ve spent in His word. Seeing my children thrive and take refuge in His loving grace is an amazing gift, today, and every day.

Jason and I have been married 10 years yesterday. It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since we said “I do” on the beaches of Hawaii at sunset. So much has happened in the last 10 years…3 more kids, 2 houses, one massive hurricane, Jude’s injury and recovery that changed so much about our lives. We took it all on together and I’m so thankful for having Jason in my life and all the blessings he brings to our family. I can’t imagine a single day without him.

Tonight, Ty pushed us out the door after dinner. We did what old married folk do, we went to Home Depot and bought paint for our master bedroom. After that we went […]
