I can't believe Christmas has come and gone. The season did not last long enough for me. I wish that Christmas was not for another week or two. But we had such great
memories and it turned out perfect.
I loved this picture of the boys:)
We spent lots of time with our family and friends and had great food. (you can tell by all the weight I put on) And this year we did something I have always wanted to do, we had matching PJ's. It was so much fun and I loved the family pictures.
I thought Dan would hate it and never where them again, but I was pleasantly surprised when he did not only love how we all matched, but they have been his favorite pajamas. I LOVE IT! My cousins surprised us with a visit in there crazy PJ's. We were shocked and laughed our heads off. It was hilarious.
One of my favorite parts of the Christmas season is the time spent baking with my Grandma Bernice.
I love her so much and love the time we spend together. We laughed and had so much fun.
And Ambree had fun too with her "Favorite Great Grandma!"
I have to admit it was a little sad as well. I have been so emotional since Ambree has come into our home. I really miss Sharyn and when I look into Ambree's eyes and see a little glimpse of her sister, it makes me miss her all the more. Its been hard To have Sharyn not here with us again this Christmas, and I am sure the Christmas's to come will always have a ting of sadness with them. We again had her stocking filled with gifts that would be put on her grave and this year I was not in a hurry to go and put them there. I did not want to see my baby's grave and see her in the cold and snow. I finely went and gave her, her gifts and just cryed.
I know that we will see her again and that gives me comfort this time of the year.
I am so looking forward to the new year and what it will bring. I am also sad to be leaving 2009 behind because of all the things that I have learned and felt. The true blessings in our lives are our family and what they are to me and how perishes there lives our to me. Also my friends and all the support they have given us this past year. What a true blessing! We love you and want to wish you a very happy new year!
