Merry (belated) Christmas 2008!
We are still in Virginia and unable to upload pictures from our camera from Christmas so please bear with us.
Christmas was wonderful and the kids really made it special. I think this is the first year that I REALLY just wanted to sit there and watch them open things.
What a nice feeling! And a joyous one!
Sam's favorite present so far is his snake webkins..... he has named snake-ub. (dont ask me!) He got so many other things he enjoyed though I am not sure he knows what to play with first!
McKaylas favorite present had to be her Fur-real Cat. She really like this thing, and it moves, and seems so real its actually kinda scary! LOL
But they both made out like fat rats with about 3 webkins a piece. Sam got a chiuaua (i cant spell that to save my life), snake and a huskie. Kayla got a black cat, striped cat, and a dragon!
I got a frog! :) Thanks Popo and Papa! :)
We were supposed to make it up to PA for the holidays this year but with Brads sudden layoff, and things extremely tight...we didn't see how we were going to make it ANYWHERE! Then Grace Baptist Church took up an offering for us (do you know how HARD it is to take charity?!!!???!!!) But they knew how much my mom wanted us to be in VA so we werent alone during this rough time, and were thoughtful enough to do something SO amazing! I STILL cant thank them enough!
Hopefully we will make it to PA VERY soon!!!!!!
Things are going o.k.here other than that~ Brad had an interview through a temp agancy on friday and we are supposed to hear something back early this week!
Please pray...this IS a job!
Anyway...I'll be back next week with the pictures and video's~! I got some REALLY great ones!
Much love from our family to YOURS!! Merry Christmas!!!!
So glad you could be with your family for the holiday. I will be praying for Brad to get a job really soon. I can tell you I know how hard it is to take charity for SURE, but I will tell you this. I know the type of person you are and you would give your shirt off your back for anyone. The beautiful thing about charity is when you can you pay it forward. I know for a fact you and your family do that, just as Randy and I cannot wait too.
