Christmas 2008

We had such a wonderful Christmas! Emmy got so many gifts....she is so spoiled!  My grandparents got her a huge rocking horse.  It took the men quite a while to put it together!  We've started a new tradition of Christmas at our house, which is fun!  I always have dreamed of having holidays at my home!  This way we get to blend both of our families together, too!  We've also started attending Christmas Eve candlelight service as a family, which is one of my favorite traditions.  We let Emmy open the first gift on Christmas Day which was a shirt that said, "I'm going to be a big sister".  It took everyone a while to catch on, but then everyone was so excited!  

Big News, Big Apple!

Wow, it's been a long time since I've made a new post!  In December, Joey and I took a trip to NYC that we'd saved for the whole time he was in Iraq.  The week before we left, we found out some exciting news that we were GOING TO BE PARENTS AGAIN!!  We weren't really planning to have another baby yet, but God's plan is always perfect, so we're excited.  Well, pregnancy set in as we set off for NYC and I was SICK the ENTIRE trip!  We still had a good time, but for now, I can't talk about New York without getting nauseous.  We got to meet up with our friends Sarah and Phillip which was fun!  I'm posting a picture of my "germaphobe", Sarah, on the SUBWAY!!:)  Anyway, I will be better about updating posts....I think I'm getting over my early pregnancy sleep disorder.  Please pray for our growing family!
