Holiday Season at DisneylandSo magical to spend it with those I love

Amazing time in toon town with my favorite girls !

Trolly time with Darren, too bad the guy wasnt actually there to ride it ;)
 Christmas Tree!!!
the last time I got a REAL Christmas tree I was a little girl. But this year my boyfriend wanted to get us girls a Christmas tree! We were so thrilled because we have never had one at my own place because we would usually just do the tree at my moms house but it was also synthetic. So this is my very first tree in my own place with my family and a new special man :)  He also put up the lights on my house and it looks so pretty and It makes me so excited for this Christmas. It is great that I am able to share it with someone who cares for me and my girls as much as he does. I am so blessed and look foward to the New Year ahead.

 Woman's Christmas Dinner 2010 at CCMV
What an amazing time with amazing woman. I am so glad that this year I had brought me dear best friend Helaina. She has been such a rock in my healing process and such a beautiful christian woman.


The tables were so beautiful, and over flowing with sparkle and shine.
The message of our Savior was amazing and I was honored to be apart of such an amazing event with friends and family. Every year  just seems to get better and better. Thank you Jesus for giving me such a beautiful family in your name. 


Let us not give up meetign together,as some are in the habit of doing,but let us encourage one another-and all the more as you see the day approaching.
-Hebrews 10:25

Holiday Season


 Thanksgiving has come and gone and I think this year has hit me harder than past years. I was full of emotion and emptiness.I did get through it and tried to make the best of the situation and though I am deeply grateful for my blessings, It doesn't ease the pain of losing my husband and memories just flow through me of  having that perfect day with him and the excitement of cooking together and getting ready together. I miss it. And now that I have survived another Thanksgiving I will now go on and conquer the Christmas season and the New Year that is to come. Every moment is hard. Especially dealing with the memories and watching all the happy families share in their joy with their loved ones, and making such special memories with their husbands and other kids wrapping their arms around their dads and having that special man in their lives.It just doesn't seem fair. But I know God has a plan for us widows and that I am not alone in these feelings. I have recently met some amazing widows who have the same emotions and feelings that I am going through. They have been such an amazing support system and blessing in my widowhood journey. So as we go on this holiday season let us rejoice in the life we were given and for the life of our Lord Jesus Christ.

                  "Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed,yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed," says   the Lord who has compassion on you!
- Isaiah 54:10
