My Christmas Tree!

Every year on the day after Thanksgiving, I pull my Christmas Tree out from the basement and become frustrated with how to decorate it! This year I gave up! I called my creative, talented and amazing neighbor (yes, you Ceryl) and forced her into using her wonderful talents to help me decorate the best tree ever! She was nice enough to meet me at Walmart and help me to pick out ribbon, grapvine, bulbs, berry garland and the cutest snowflakes (from Dollar Tree)! I watched her throw this Amazing tree together, it turned out so cute! I Love it! I just hope that next I'll be able to re-create it! Here are some pictures, they don't really do the tree justice but at least you can get an idea...Thanks again Ceryl!


Troy

Yesterday Troy was ordained an Elder in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was such a great day! It has been amazing to see the changes and growth that have taken place in our family over the past year. Life seems more simple and meaningful than it used to. Our journey has not always been an easy one but at the end of the day it is so worth it. I am so proud of Troy and all he has accomplished. He is an amazing husband and father. He is a great example for me and my kids and I look forward to the day we become an eternal family. I would like to thank our family and friends for all your help and support over the past eleven years, we love you guys!
