The best Christmas ever!!

We had one of the best Christmas's ever. Sara really enjoyed all that she was given even though she wouldn't let Santa in the house. She made him leave all of her gifts outside on the front porch. We learned that Darrel did well enough in his classes last quarter to earn the HOPE scholarship which will be applied to his fees beginning in January and cover the entire time he is in his program. We were able to spend time with Darrel's family and my family and not be rushed by having to get back to work.

All in all we were blessed way more than we ever expected. I am grateful for this time of year. I have learned how to let offenses go and not allow myself to be offended when people wrong me (whether it is intentional or not). I have learned that family is family whether we like them or not and we have to set a good example for everyone. I wish I had pictures to publish and maybe some will come as time permits.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year as it approaches! God Bless
