Christmas Day

Daddy, Mommy and Little Guy would like to wish everyone

a very Merry Christmas....


This year for christmas we stayed home. This was different because since the year we were engaged we have gone away. In the morning we did gifts with my parents, then we went to my brothers house for dinner and gifts with them. It was a long day, but a lot of fun. Thankfully my sister in law is always prepared and even had a swing for Little Guy to be in:) He loves the swing so it was great!!!! Here are some pictures of our day:)


Wow!! This toy is so cool...


I would like to thank Mommy and Daddy, Grandma and


Grandpa and Jesus for everything that He has given to me.


Ahhhh...its so nice to sit up and look around. This is the best seat ever!


What can I say...little guy can melt anybody's heart with that cute face.

Santa Was Here!!!

On Saturday we went and saw Santa Clause!!! We don't believe it Santa but look at more as like a fairy tale, such as Cinderella or Mickie Mouse. So when the chance arose to get some pictures and help some teens go raise money to go on a missions trip we went. So here are the pics:)

It's Crazy Around Here:)

To everyone that looks at my blog I am truly sorry for my lack of blogging:( We have very busy around here! I never thought that I would be so busy staying at home. We have been decorating, baking, wrapping gifts, shopping for gifts, and cleaning. I will try to get some pics up tomorrow:) Merry Christmas:)

Our Trip

Well we have been back for almost a 2 weeks, but we have been very busy! It was a wonderful trip, and we were able to spend some time with our dear friends.


So lets start from the beginning:)
This is a pic of Little Guy sleeping during the flight:)


This was Little Guy's first flight so they let us take a pic of him in the cokpit:) He just woke up so he was not too happy!!!







Our flight left at 8am and we live about an hour from the airport so we were up at 4am so we could be ready to leave at 5! Wow that was early!!! We got the airport and were able to bypass the security line because Little Guy was in a stroller:) We were bumped up to the front of the line and did not have to wait. Amen!!!


Little Guy was wonderful on the plane and slept most of the time in the sling:) When we arrived at Edmonton we were met by the missionaries we stayed with and started our trek to our first stop in our ride to our finial destination. We slept at a friends house and then up in the morning for more travailing. Thankfully we only had 4 hours to go:)

The weather was wonderfully cold:) The coldest it got was -24C





Little Guy loved it:)

This trip was to be a fast one. On Sunday we were able to show part of our work to the people at the church. Daddy was unable to show our presentation due to the fact that his computer was not working. Satan did not get his way though; Daddy was able to do it verbally again. (He is getting good at being without pics to help him:)) We had wonderful fellowship at the dinner that was prepared for all the members of the church, and great food:) Then we had an early evening (afternoon) service. We spent the rest of the day out taking pictures of the town and people.

This was at the mall! Unlike we are used, to the mall closes at 5pm on the weekends! Another thing that we have to get used to is the price difference. It was almost $8 for a chicken strip meal!!!

On Monday we were on the road again. This time it was a test of my faith:) The roads were icy and many times I was unable to see anything in front of us (thankfully I was not doing the driving). But to God be the glory we arrived without injury to the town where we feel the Lord is leading us to live. The fellowship there was equally as sweet.
Here are some of the children at the church:)

We slept over there, and woke up early for our 5 hour ride to the airport (another nail biting ride) Our first flight was great, and without any trouble. But our next flight was something else. We had about 20 minutes to get to the other plane. So we rushed to the other terminal only to be the last people on the plane. We made it to the runway and then had to turn around and go back. We sat in the plane for 3 hours. There was something technical wrong in the cockpit and then we had to wait for new flight attendants. When we finally arrive at our airport we found out that 2 pieces of our luggage was still in Minnesota. One piece that was left was Little Guy's car seat. Thankfully the airport provided a car seat so we could go home. We arrived at home at 4am on Wednesday morning. I was able to sleep during the day whenever Little Guy took a nap but Daddy and Grandma had to work all day:( Grandma and Grandpa picked us up from the airport so they were equally as tired) Well that is the run down of our trip; the good, the bad, and the blessings:)
