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
