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.

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!

    So I get this text from my husband: So I was washing dishes and Mazy was playing in the living room. All of a sudden I realized she was being awfully quiet. I looked over there and she was coloring on the couch with an ink pen!!! I think I got most of it off…

    I had all these grand ideas of how I was going to be the perfect stay-at-home-mom. As much as didn’t/don’t want to admit it, we go into parenthood with expectations. I made the mistake of telling Dan that I didn’t really have any expectations, but the more I thought about it, I so did! I…

  • Mazy’s Favorite Books

    We like to read in our house. There is something peaceful about pulling out a book, cuddling and squishing together on the couch, as we soak in the story and allow ourselves to imagine beyond the present. Thankfully Mazy likes to sit and read books now. She didn’t always love to, which comes with age,…

    Oh the journey. Again, words are hard to find to describe what is going on inside of us, our hearts, our faith, and in our lives. So as always, this is going to take just a few posts to really explain. But two words keep coming to mind: Knitted together. What this has meant for…
