It's all over and just beginning.

Little Rae. 3 months old.

Jack and Car-Car eating M&M's out of their new "Cars" lunch box's.

Jason got a toy. :)

Wow, that was the longest month of my life. Although I am so glad that December is behind me, I really enjoyed it too. Our Christmas Eve service went really well and I felt the hand of God every step of the way. That morning I woke up with no voice (at all) and then by 3:00 it came back. That had to only be God!

We had a wonderful Christmas with family and a great week off. It was really needed for both Jason and I. We hung around the house, ate out a lot and just enjoyed one another. It was also a reminder to us how much our kids are growing. First of all, we have "KIDS". That's weird enough to just say it. Second of all, Jackson will be 3 years old in May and Reagan just turned 3 months. She is already rolling over! My babies are growing up!!!! (Tear) We had a wonderful New Year's too. My twin sisters turned 15 years old and we took them out for an "adult" dinner to celebrate. We figured they were getting tired of McDonald's and Chuck E. Cheese. :)

My wonderful husband gave me diamond earrings for Christmas. I will cherish them forever. They are simple, elegant and just what I've always wanted. My facebook status read "I got Bling" for about 10 days. I was just a little excited.

Now we are in 2009 and there is so much on the horizon already. God is doing some AMAZING things at River City. I have never been more humbled and excited to see the work of God. Our pastor recently reminded us in staff prayer that it is not a question of "can we do what God is calling, but can we follow Him through it?" I thought that was so great. Not just on a ministry level, but on a personal level. It has been a reoccurring thought it my mind all week. It may be something all of us could step back and ask ourselves. Keep your eyes on Him and have a Happy New Year!
