Our Christmas Celebrations

2 Comments
Another “first” we couldn’t wait to celebrate: CHRISTMAS.
I always had dreams of watching our child open his/her first gift. Getting up Christmas morning and celebrating Christmas as a family. Telling our child about what Christmas really is about. A baby that came to save the world.
And now those dreams have come true. Every single one of them.
What a special Christmas it was. A Christmas we will always remember!
We were blessed to be able to travel home for Christmas, which is always so special. Catching up with family, friends, and spending Christmas together as a family of 3.
 Michigan weather consisted of 60-some degree weather with rain and a rainbow, days before Christmas

 

Mazy is so intrigued by the grandfather clock

Waking up Christmas morning – someone is a little excited to open her gift from mom and dad!

 

 

Mazy is determined to get that wrapping paper off!

Mazy is obsessed with dogs – even Clifford!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We couldn’t be more thankful for our families! And most of all, we couldn’t be more thankful for our Savior, who God sent down in the form of a baby, a human, to walk the life we walk, and then to die for us so we could be set free! What more could we ask for – to be able to spend eternity in perfection, with our Father!

    GOD’S plans are worth the wait. If someone told me that I would give birth, I would have laughed. In fact, I probably would’ve cried because why would anyone tease me with that idea? If someone told me that I would have our first child at 31, I would have laughed. In fact, I probably…
