***Let it snow... let it snow....let it snow....***

I emailed this to my friend Kelly, but afterwards I knew I had to share with you all as well..

I was watching the kids build a snowman yesterday. I was just staring at them out of the picture window. We had Christmas music on… Mike built a roaring fire…maybe it was the season.. but, I was totally mesmerized by them. Their cold little hands molding the snow. They had smiling little faces with rose red cheeks. Then when they caught me, they waved wildly. They were so innocent, and happy. And I thought to myself.. Damn I have a good life!


Maybe it was the three shots of rum I had beforehand? :D LOL



Yea! It snowed!

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas..

The smell is in the air... The songs are on the radio. Officially, I am in the spirit. Mike and I suprised the kids this last weekend by decorating the front yard. :) The were very excited.
I dont know about you all, but at least for me, seeing my children smile, makes me the most spirited. Something about the honest and sincere wonder in thier eyes.. It makes me feel like a kid again. :) Today I had some presents delivered for the kids. I swear it was more exciting for me than anything in a very long time. :D Thats sad I know Tee-hee
I honestly dont know what is so different about this year. Possibly because we are married, and an "official" family?...Maybe because my brothers and sisters are so much closer now than ever?... Or maybe because the kids are much more loving and thoughtful of each other?.. Whatever the case may be, I feel this year is somehow different, special. I cant wait to see what happens next. :D

Below is a video of Jontae's solo in the Christmas concert.. My baby has some pipes. :D

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
