Christmas Day

Christmas morning Job left early for church to set up.  This is my handsome boy headed to church.  Our service was great this morning.  We did lots of scripture reading & the music was perfect.  After church I headed home to get Reid down for a nap.  He must have been sooo tired because he slept two hours!

 Christmas for us this year was different for sure.  First thing was we offered to host Christmas for Job's family at our house & second Job's cousin, Johnny asked if Job would marry them at our house on Christmas day.  He agreed so we had a wedding, ha!!  Johnny & Misty dated less than 2 months and decided they knew they wanted to get married so why wait & plan a big wedding.  So I with the help of MIL planned it for her.  We got a wedding cake made, everyone signed a large Christmas ball for the "guest book", I took the pictures, & Misty's mom bought her a bouquet!

Here is the cake:

 Our Christmas season was packed full & so much fun.  I loved having a one year old this year.  I loved starting new traditions & making memories with him.  He is such a blessing to us.  We are SO thankful for Jesus his birth & resurrection for without this we are nothing.  We are excited to start a new year!  We love to talk about our goals for the next year & write them down.  

Have you been thinking about New Years Resolutions yet?
