Merry Christmas (late)! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a great time. Chad was actually off Christmas Eve and Christmas Day for the first time ever. Bryce was so excited and surprised opening his gifts! Watching him was just so precious. He is always so appreciative for his gifts and I love that about him.
We had a good time with both familes. Lots of good times, laughs, food and gifts! All 4 of the nephews and 1 niece on my side of the family spent the night with Bryce on the 26th. Chad was at work so it was me against the 6 wild ones. They are all between 9 and 4 years old. They were really good and we had a great time. Those of you that really know me, know that people in my house totally freaks me out. I just feel on edge the entire time. This sleep over was spur of the moment so I didn't have time to think about it or freak out until they were there. I actually did ok. I even shocked myself. Nothing was broken ;) so I'm very thankful for that! I'll try to post some pics this week! I didn't take very many pics this year, not sure what was wrong with me!
If I don't post again before - Happy New Year! I hope you will all have a blessed 2009!

ALIVE!
Yes, I'm still alive for those of you that wondered :) Thanks for the emails checking on me!
Life continues to be very busy - Bryce is playing basketball and indoor soccer. I am so very proud of him! He's on a U9 soccer team (he's 6) so he's learning a lot and he's hanging with the big boys very well!
On the TTC front - as if you aren't sick of hearing about it :) I think I am finally in a place where I'm ok with being done. I kept the infant nursery at church last night and while I loved every second of holding those babies, I think I can move on. Think being the key word. We'll see in time if I'm really ready to let go or not. This has been such a hard, humbling and painful journey. I have learned a lot of important lessons thru this.
I hate to always be a downer but I got some really sad news Friday that I hope you guys will pray about. A co-worker's 14 year old daughter was killed late Thursday. She and a friend were at Hardee's waiting on the friend's mom to pick them up to take them to dance. When the mom pulled in, she missed the brake and pinned the girl between the car and the building killing her immediately. She was an only child conceived by IVF, a true miracle baby. I know both families are devastated. Please pray for them. That has really helped open my eyes to how truly blessed I am.
On to happier things....anyone planning on going to Scrap Etc in Atlanta next year? I'd really like to go but not sure I can swing it. Atlanta would ROCK though!
