Christmas Fun

We have been keeping ourselves very busy and have been enjoying some family traditions. We've cut down our trees, made delicious cookies (in our pajamas), and even went downtown for an "unofficial downtown day"... and have actually did more then just survive...we've enjoyed the times!! It is still hard on a daily basis, but I'm starting to see signs of true happiness coming back out in smiles and laughs throughout our family. Praise God.

Visit with Santa

We took the kids to see Santa! Their camera wasn't working so I got to us my own, which was wonderful since it was free!! They both did great and gave us wonderful smiles. Timmy asked for a motorcycle and a truck and asked Santa to bring Kenzie a doll. It was precious.

Timmy's 3rd Birthday!!

We had a blast celebrating Timmy's 3rd birthday!! On his actual birthday we went to Chucky Cheese, where he had fun riding the toys and playing the games!! We were all so tired after playing all day. We then had a party for him at my parent's house over the weekend, where close family and friends came to celebrate and party. The theme was Sponge Bob (Timmy's choice) and he went crazy between the presents, pinata, & cake. We really appreciate all of the help that went into the party and for the support everyone gave us. It was really hard to celebrate without Tammy but we made the best of it. Some of his favorite gifts were his gun from Uncle Pete, a Harley Davidson baseball cap, a cook book, and a bike/video game thing...and he LOVES his clothes.

I'm working on an ABC book about Tammy for Timmy's Christmas gift, and I thought I would post some of the pictures that I've downloaded of Tammy for you all to see.

Mak's First Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving up in WI with both of our families. Our little turkey had a blast swimming at the condo, eating whipped creme (compliments of Grandpa Jensen, who shot a blast right in her mouth, straight from the can!!), playing with Audrey, and visiting family. It was wonderful spending such a long weekend up north. It was hard celebrating without Tammy, but we did our best to focus on the blessings in our lives. Timmy Ray & Timmy Lee went to Alabama to spend time with the Adams. One holiday down and another to go. Please keep us in your prayers!! This time of year has been very hard on us all but we are VERY thankful for the two children in our lives who keep us laughing and smiling. I call Makenzie my little joy bug because she seems to make me smile when I need it the most...and Timmy keeps us laughing everyday.
