Christmas Tree time!

Last Friday we decided we needed to go get our Christmas tree.  I am so glad we did, it was so fun and Will had a blast even though it was only 20 degrees (which this week seems toasty compared to the -22 degrees this morning).  Will knew his Dad meant business with a big saw in hand and a trailer.  He ran as quick as his little legs could go to get in on the action.

And get in on the action he did.

Then it was time for hide and seek while Jeremy loaded up the tree.  We had a blast and I LOVE having a real tree again!

What a week


This past week has been a difficult one, but one thing that I had reinforced to me was that I have one amazing husband.  We went to Denver for Thanksgiving to be with Jeremy's family and had a blast.  But what comes with traveling and family get-togethers?  Nice colds.  Will ended up with croup, and Jeremy and I were lucky to get sick too, then last Wednesday I ended up having a miscarriage.  Since we are out here without family, Jeremy ended up taking care of Will for most of the week and taking care of everything else.   He also surprised me with some beautiful flowers (he's always been good about that) and made some good comfort food.  He's perfected frying things with rice and soy flour and I must say it was the tastiest food I've had in a long time.  With the trials that we faced last week, I realized how thankful I am for such a great husband, and an amazingly loving little boy.  I am also thankful for my family and friends that are so caring and supportive.  Thank you for your prayers, we have felt them and are doing very well.
