And he and Jake could resit ganing up on me in snowball fight! It turned out to be a great day of fun..well see how long it sticks!

have a holly jolly christmas

So this is way long overdue but here it goes..This year we where very blessed to have Jake home for the hoildays! We decided to spend it as a family here in fayetteville. It was such a joy watching Emmitt really get into it..He is sitll sing Jingle Bells. We started a count down for Emmitt so he would know when the big day was. Fastfoward to Christmas Eve. We went to church as a family. It service was beatfull..well what i saw of it..Emmitt was not in the mood to sit for anyamount of time this close to Christmas. We get home and let Emmitt open a presnt from Auntie Aunite (notice the awsome pjs in the pic). Well we sent Emmitt off to bed and the real fun of makeing Christmas appear began. Unlike most parents we where not prepared and stayed up late wrapping..Emmitt woke up early of Christmas moring and had a blast tearing through presnets. After some family time we went to a friends house to eat! As I look back on the season now I really do feel blessed..Blessed with wonderfull family and friends..
