Merry Christmas

 

One of our wonderful neighbors lit luminarias around our neighborhood yesterday evening and it was such a beautiful sight to see.

It really lifted my spirits since I worked until the 23rd and I was exhausted from it.  I’m glad to be on vacation now though, I get to spend much quality time with my family.

From my family to yours, have a blessed Christmas.

We weren’t able to attend Christmas Eve services due to some factors not in our control but we will be watching the morning service online today and rejoicing in our Savior’s birth.

I’m  beyond blessed this year with everything God has shown to us in our lives.

Family update

 

So it has been awhile since I have fully updated on our family life.

I had E in the summer of 2015 and so I wasn’t really able to blog much until now.  I switched jobs as well and M switched roles to a SAHD/full time student so life has been a whirlwind of events.

So that is our small update on family and life.

I won’t be posting many pictures of E online as a mutual decision for our family but will be sharing rare glimpse into our family life when it arises and it is something we both agree upon. 🙂

Merry Christmas from our family to yours.

So thankful to have M here for Christmas even if he and I get mad at each other over pity things.  The joy of marriage has ups and downs, right? 🙂

Now we will enjoy watching White Christmas while I eat tamales that our neighbor gave me (um, us…I’ll share if M wants a piece). 😉 Then we will open presents and celebrate Christ’s birth.  So thankful for everything God has blessed us with this year…even when we struggled and lost hope. 🙂

Have a wonderful Christmas day & great weekend!!
