We finally got a little snow today, a light dusting, and I am hoping for lots more between now and Christmas. It just doesn't feel like Christmas up North without the snow.. so praying for lots more.
Physically, I had a pretty hard week, but thankfully, got some more meds today and am hopeful that this next week I will begin to feel a bit better and not be so hard on myself.
This last weekend we went to Logan and spent Saturday and Sunday with my best friend Jamie McQueen. We had seen her for a bout an hour the week before that, so I was really excited to be able to spend more time with her. This girl used to live with us when we lived in Franklin for a couple of years and was just like a sister to me. Once we moved to Oklahoma, I had basically lost all contact with her until here recently so we had alot to catch up on over the last 12 years. Its amazing how friends for life , it doesnt matter how many years you have been apart, the moment u get back together, its as if no time has been lost at all. It was a great visit that is for sure and I look forward to doing it again. Also, it was really amazing and almost brought me to tears several times watching my 3 lil ones play with her son, Nathick, who is a year older than my Desiree. Very good time had by all.
We are now 6 days away from picking up Ashton at the Airport and we are all so very excited about it. It has been since the begining to the Sept since we have seen him and we miss him dearly. We are very thankful for the ability to be able to fly him up here for Christmas and spend the 2 weeks with him. We have some pretty fun and exciting things planned while he is up here.
Santa will be here in 11 days, and even though this Christmas isnt what we would have wanted, in terms of lots of gifts....it will still be an amazing Christmas as the children did get some of the items they wanted and I heard a quote about how its not the quanity of gifts under the tree, but the quality of family time during the holidays, so I am refusing to let myself get "down" about the quanity and more about the quality.
I have planned to go up Emmigration Canyon and take some amazing family photos in the snow once Ashton gets and then once we do that, I want to send out "late" Christmas Cards... so I will need everyones address... :)
Anyways, that is what has been going on since my last post. I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, and I love and miss you all dearly.
Lots of Love,
Jamie
