Hey, It's Been Too Long!

So I need to drop little notes on occassion, but truly I have a very full life! I want to update you on my heart, but need to get the notes on Facebook which is currently under site maintenance apparently! So just want to say hello for now, and let you know to look to be up to date on my heart and the plans ahead over the next few months very soon.

God bless...T

Win A WII!!!

Made It Through the Year

Well, 2008 is done. No going back, no do-overs, it's just over. Looking back it's amazing how much faster each year goes. I long more and more for Jesus to return so that we can all spend eternity with loved ones and in peace and harmony with one another. There will be no more pain, no more sadness, no more hurting one another, jealousy, back-biting, angry words, lack of grace, meanness, joy-robbers, hate, disfunction, disillusion, selfishness, pride, lying, bitterness, and on and on the list goes. We will be in the presence of the One Who created us and what a wonderful place that will be!!

We rang in the new year with our neighbor boy Marty, and dear friends Dave and Casey.

Our family photo New Years Morning before we took our tree down!

Our Baby is 18 Months. Where has time gone? What a joy it is to watch them all grow!

This has been a great year in many ways, as well as very difficult. We are all looking forward to a fresh start in '09! God bless you all as you enter yet another year!

Have A Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Our official family Christmas card is available for you to view!

Christmas Is Comin' Are Ya Ready?

Are you ready for the day? The moment we all await all year long? I can't wait!!! However, we don't wait to celebrate on one day, noooo, we enjoy the month! Just the thought of gearing up for the big event is so special!!! A great reminder of our Dear Savior Who came to live here...WOW! Among the lame ;)...that's us!

We are wrapping gifts, decorating, preparing to make our Gma Graber's favorite cookies, even making gifts, which ends up being the most fun! The kids get their creative flares going and we even have a laugh or 2! Maiah was making a gift for Marlee the other day, and it was so cute. She pasted paper all over a cereal box, it was priceless! She was so excited when she saw what Marlee made for Mandee, and then when Marlee told her to get out of her room so she could make her a special gift she got all excited! "Marlee's going to make me a wonderful gift too (as her voice raised higher and higher and her eyes widened) like Mandee's (can't say what it is)" She was sooo excited! Way cute! We also plan to watch The Nativity on Christmas Eve in our jams with hot cocoa and munchies. We are all really looking forward to that time as a family!!! Might even exchange a gift or 2!

Dad and his wife will be here for a week, and leave the day after Christmas, so we will have time with them. We plan to go to his house with my brother's family to do a little celebrating, and the Grabers always plan something!

Anyway...I am nursing colds at the moment, doing laundry, the kids lunch is in the oven, and now I am heading downstairs to do school. I will post more about our Christmas fine moments later.
