being thankful...

this year, i'm so thankful for my family...steve, stacey and shannan

and,

our great friends...

this year we spent THANKSGIVING with our special friends the didlkes...

we ate,

drank some great wine,

played pool,

laughed.

danced,

and laughed some more...

the most special moment is when we shared what we were most thankful for...

i'm still very sad about loosing my mom, but have learned and am still learning to love and appreciate what is right in front of me...my lord, jesus christ, my husband and my kids...cherish the moments you have with your family and those special friends in your life...

what i learned this holiday season is that you can find comfort and joy through jesus...in good times and bad...

that is my wish for my life in 2013...finding joy in EVERYTHING!

CHRISTMAS was mellow...

we opened gifts with the kids,

made breakfast,
headed off to the beach

and then home for movies, naps and just simply spending time with each other...

a great time...

peace, comfort and joy to all...

xoxo
