Our family

So here we are! A new year and a lot or resting up for now, before we get thrown back into whatever groove it is God has planned for us. This past year was a time of major spiritual growth. We learned so much from God and we are still recouperating a bit! But we are greatful for it all. As most of you know, Curtis is still in school. This last semester would not have been accomplished without your blessings and prayers. It would not have been accomplished without God. He showed us so much love and He showed us just how much HE is in control. 


Early this year we also found out we 
were having another baby! NO...we do not know what it is, but we will find out soon! I am due Feb. 18th. But when the docotors look at it on our ultrasound they say it will be here a lot sooner. So we will see! 


Since I was no longer working and 
school is out for the holidays, we were all able to be together for Christmas. It was such a BLESSING! So this year we decided to make Christmas cookies! It was a lot of fun, a ton of work, but soooo delicious! And even after all the cookies, rice crispy treats, and tamales I managed to lose a pound! 

Here is Merrick and daddy getting things set up
to make all the goodies. Merrick is asking Curtis
what the mixer is. I am so happy we were able
to get that thing out of the garage!

After I took this picture I said "oh man it was
ALMOST perfect, Curtis you didnt push your
ring finger in all the way!" He gave me a weird
Look, then I remembered his ring finger is just
a little special. 

Here is our Christmas family picture! Thanks to
Caroline and Kennys awesome camera! It was funny
because I THOUGHT I was standing really
close to them when I was posing...but it was
mostly my stomach that was getting in on all the action.

So this past year is done and gone and we are

comming out of it strong and full of hope
and joy. We thank all of you who helped us
get through it and we look forward to what
adventures are waiting for us this next year!
