Happy New Year's Eve 2009

One more year is drawing to a close..I can't believe it!! It feels like 2009 has flown by. I am looking forward to 2010!! A new year with lots of changes in store, praying we are making the right decision to move to West Virgina!! In my head it makes sense, it's cheaper to live there then NJ, taxes are lower, car insurance is lower but will Bryan be able to find work, Do I want to continue my career as an EMT?? Lots of questions still unanswered. All I can do for now is pray for more guidance.. God has always set me straight!
Well today we are going to the movies with my Mom. This will be Em's first movie theatre experience, hoping she likes it! LOL We are going to see the Princess and the Frog. I think they will enjoy it. Faith asked a few weeks ago when she saw a bill board for it in NYC of all places if we could go with Mommom..of course Mommom said yes!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Hello,
Wishing You all a Merry Christmas!!
The girls woke us up about 9am..Shocking I know..Emilee was so funny, she come running around my side of the bed and tapped me on the shoulder..when I turned around she had such a expressive face, pointing out to the living room.."Did Santa come?", I asked.. Em shook her head yes.."Do you want to open gifts?" She shook her head yes..."SO let's go!" She hurried out of the bedroom. She had one gift in her hand and met me half way down the hall.. I asked them to wait for a minute but that didn't last! She had the box opened and on to Faith's gift by the time I sat down. LOL..
Em was so excited about her Kalain doll and doodle pro! She especially liked her bitty baby..
Faith loved all the HEllo Kitties Santa brought her..especially the one in the red kimono that she saw in the Hello kitty store in New York City!
It's been a wonderful Christmas so far!! We have round 2 later today at my Mom's.. Will report later!

I am a very happy Girl!! Mom bought me some new clothes and the Racheal Ray deep lasagna dish!! I also got a cute Anna Lee panda.
The kids enjoyed all there presents that Mom Mom bought them. I think Faith has had the most fun with her Easy Bake oven. Em loves her wagon with blocks!!
I enjoyed watching the excitement the girls had when they saw all the gifts waiting for them! I made them sit on the couch so that us adults could prepare and get our cameras!! LOL Em was not happy!!

I enjoy gift giving but its important to remember the real reason we celebrate Christmas.. Our Savior was Born..

NYC 12/16/2009

Faith, Mom and I had a fabulous time in NY..When we were traveling to get Mom she asked me when the sun was coming up..It was the first time that she got up early enough to see the sun rise..
It was cold outside but that didn't stop us. Faith and I actually have been up there on colder days. We first went to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular!!


Here are some pictures...

We had a wonderful time in West Virgina visiting hubby's family. It was nice just to chill out and not have to do anything and enjoy each other's company.

Almost Christmas...

So much to do and so little time!!

We had pictures with Santa yesterday at the Rescue Squad. The girls were dressed in their Christmas dresses and looked adorable!! We had a party for the kids too..They got a special sitting with Santa where he gave them a present!!
Faith and Santa...cheese!!!


Emilee did not like Santa too well..She cried as soon as she saw him. She also didn't like the blow ups they had flanking the tree.
Here is Emilee and Faith by the tree, as you can see she was not happy about it!!



I pray that you and your Family have a Merry Christmas!!!!
