Christmas

Merry Christmas! We hope that everyone is doing well. The days are getting shorter and Christmas is almost here. I hope that everyone is enjoying this wonderful holiday season and is remembering that its about family and friends and not whats under the tree. Chris and I are geared up and ready to go. we are excited to be heading to Colorado to see some of our family. Plans are already being made and our time is short. I hope to see everyone that I can and to those that we cant see please know that we love you and will find time next summer to come out and see you all. I am not looking forward to the drive up there though. We are expecting snow from Raton New Mexico through Colorado Springs. I am glad to be away from that down here and do not look forward to dealing with it again :). We had to say goodbye to Eric and Dee Dee Moyes this week as they are traveling back to Utah to start their lives down there. Eric graduated from school up here and has already been offered a job in Utah so CONGRATS ERIC!!! We are so very proud of you. You guys are amazing people and I feel so blessed to have had you all apart of our lives even for the short time it was. You all will be missed dearly in this household. Chris and I are excited about the new year and whats planned for us. Its nice to have our time and be alone again. Its been to long sense we have spent one on one time together and have an empty house just to the two of us. We are enjoying every minute of it. We have not decided if we are going to try for children of our own after my surgery next year or not. We will just have to wait and see. when we are able to buy a house of our own we have talked about adopting a little one. We will see what happens when the time comes. We wish you all a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS where ever you are and hope that each one of you is blessed with happiness, love and lots of smiles in this next year to come. Love Tabitha

Christmas 2011

Since there have been a lot of changes in our lives here recently, Chris and I decided that this year we are going to Colorado and are going to spend Christmas with my family. In the six years that we have been married Chris and I have not spent Christmas with my family at all. So this is a new thing for us and we are both very excited about it. It is going to be a great Holiday season for our family this year! Things have truly turned around for the better for us this year. We had some down times and had some issues to work through but as we are getting closer to the end of the year, things are truly looking up for us. We had hopes of buying a house this year and having a permanent place to call home, all I can say is thank God for unanswered prayers. I look at it now and realize that the house and the area that we were looking at would not have been a good fit for our family and the dreams that we have. So onto next year, we are planning on renting for another year and continuing to get things paid off. After that we will look into the possibilities of owning our first home. I do not want to rush into something like that, I want to make sure that Chris and I are able to get what we want and something that will last us for a long time to come. We are looking forward to what next year is going to bring. Being here in Texas I have made some awesome friends and am so glad to have them in my life. Its amazing how you grow and learn and realize that things that used to be important are no longer as important and things that you really thought were important or that were easily taken for granted are actually REALLY important and should not be taken for granted. I thank God everyday for giving me the people in my life to help me grow, change, love, and learn. Each one of you is so important to me! Hope everyone has a great Holiday season! Love and warm wishes, Tabitha
