Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas. Please pray for our neighbors their house burned Sunday morning. If you have any household items you are not useing and would like to donate to them you can drop it off at our house and I will make sure they get it. Blessing to you all. 
I am really trying to keep my ugly past behind me (Christmas 1999) but it seems like every time something very small happens at this time of year I loose it... Yesterday was a terrible. It started with Treys truck starter($80 our cost crazy) going out at the donut store which made him miss detention from last week when he was late and got into trouble. Thanks to my dad being here, it did get fixed, I could not have made it happen with out him, what a blessing he is here. Kyle gouged out a chunk of skin trying to help with Treys car. Then I was cooking dinner a new recipe which we were all looking forward to and if fell off the counter and broke the 9X13 deep dish baker it was in.. I lost it crying and wanted to go sit in my room with the door locked until Jan. 1st... I really try to not think about the past but when things go bad my mind is so mean to me with the thought of 1999.. I know that was a blessing in the end but the feelings are still there every year and the fear. I pray them away. My stomach is doing flip flops. I know that we are not given anything we cannot handle so I will find the blessing in all this. Dad was here to help with Treys truck huge blessing... David brought home dinner blessing... Kyle did not need to go to the ER(well he could use a butterfly band aid) Trey cleaned up the mess in all over the floor and did all the dished. I am blessed :)
I feel so blessed to have found the job I did in October. The company Christmas party was at the Gaylord Texan, it started at 6 to go through the ICE very neat then open bar and appetizers, then off to the steakhouse in the hotel.. so much yummy food... and more drink :). David and I had a terrific time and he said he can tell why I really like working there. I was fun time and my sweet boys stayed home so I could enjoy myself and I did... David left Sunday at 1 for Minnesota burrrr it is like 7 degrees there yuck. Last night David's mom called and told us they put his dad in the hospital so pray he recovers quickly and gets to come home and pray for my mother-in-law. My dad arrives today so I have my fix it list ready ;).
Today is my daughter-in-laws 20th Birthday. I am giving a big shout out to her from Texas to Hawaii... HAPPY BIRTHDAY KERA! I pray for her to have a blessed year.. Thanksgiving seemed to be good for all my CREW :) Matthew and Kera got moved, Kyle played hard on his vacation...out very late, and Trey had a great time in New York he did say the balloons that are in the Macy's parade don't seem as big as they look on TV, they were on the corner of 43rd and Broadway so they saw it all. David's back is getting better finally and thank goodness, he leaves next Sunday for Minnesota burrr. until next time peace out!!!!
