It is now 2012 & I have a ton of pictures to post, but wanted to journal a litlle update. This year I would like to update my blog more on the little things that happen day to day that I don't want to forget. The last few weeks have been somewhat of a blur of trials and immense blessings.
In Novemeber we drove to San Diego and had Thanksgiving with at Aarons sisters house and had a great, quick four day trip. It was great to see eveyone and enjoy the warm weather.
We decided to spend Christmas with my family this year for the first time in 8 years. We usually have Christmas at our house, but I really wanted to go home and we spent last Christmas with Aarons parents. I am so glad I did. As we drove down there, I got a call that my Grandma was in ICU. She had pnemonia and ceptic posioning and they didn't expect her to make it through the night. Aaron dropped me off at the hospital and it was hard to see her, but I was so glad I was there. She hung on for a week and peacefully passed on December 30 early in the morning. I am so grateful that Aaron took the kids to his moms and I got to spend 3 precious days with her before she went. Monday, I will fly home for her services. She will be dearly missed. Who else has an 85 year oold Grandma that loves to discuss American Idol?
In other news: AARON HAS A JOB!! Such a relief and blessing. He will be working for an awesome firm (and has already started) with great benefits and it is a wonderful opportunity.
I am sure 2012 will be a great year for us and full of trials and blessing that come with life.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
