Laughter

What a fun past few weeks! Jason and I went to Cabo San Lucas at the last minute the week before Christmas. It was so nice to get away and spend time together.

Thank you so much for praying us through another Christmas without Reese. What a privilege it was to have Colson with us this year. Since Reese went to Heaven there are times when I have felt completely carried by prayer. This Christmas was another one of those amazing times.

Our day was filled with family, love, joy, and laughter. Thank you for continuing to pray for us and celebrate with us.

It's going to take me all week to unpack and put Christmas away. Ha! It's so good to be home though. I'm always kind of sad after the holidays, but I try to keep busy and look forward to everything coming up in the new year.

I can't wait to share with you what our families did in honor of Reese. Very sweet things. Until I get our lives back together, this will have to hold you over.
Some things never get old. ; )

He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.

Job 8:21

    So thankful that you had a good Christmas! I know Zach loved every minute of it!
    We love Cabo! That's where we went on our honeymoon. Even though it was only 3 years ago it feels a lot longer since we went! I think Josh and I need to go again soon! :)

    I am so glad you and your family made it through another Christmas. It was our third without Gavin and it just doesn't get any easier. May your days continue to be lightened by the laughter and love of those 2 precious boys.

    Blessings,
