Christmas 2009! (continued...)



Our Christmas has been so amazing!! Here are just a few of our special memories so far...





<3



Daisy got to play Santa :)



And so did Hobbs...



...I'm pretty sure I was more excited about it than he was...



Wake up, Hobbs!!











Doesn't she make a lovely little reindeer?? :]




Christmas Cookies!!



Sporting his new hat :)











Our ONE and ONLY attempt at a family self-portrait...



Tired after a full day of festivities! :)



Hope your Christmas was fantastic!! :)

Merry Christmas!!

This is such an exciting time of year!! We hope everyone has had a wonderful time celebrating Christmas and we can't wait to see you all again!

Our Christmas has been absolutely everything we hoped for and more! We have been enjoying a lovely tropical storm all day long, which knocked out our power for most of the morning, but came back on just in time to start our roast in our new crock pot! (WOOHOO!!) :) Harley and Daisy got some new bones to chew on and Hobbs' got his very own can of tuna!! We would like to thank you all for your love (and Christmas cards!!). Being far from family and home is hard, especially during the holidays! But it has turned out to be quite doable. :)

We love you all!!

Update!!

Well, we got our camera charger! And just in time for Christmas! :)

Quick Update:

Harold graduated from A-School (the first stretch of his training) in November. Then my parents gifted us a trip home for 10 days to see family and our new niece, Layla!! We got back to Goose Creek just in time for Thanksgiving. We celebrated with friends here and then made our own 20 lb. turkey! (made us lots of turkey soup!) Now, Harold is on T-Track...which means he is doing 12 hours watches just about every other day switching from night shift to day shift. It's a pretty tiring schedule and we'll be glad to be done with it pretty soon. His next section of school begins near the end of January. Lastly, I will be starting school online in the beginning of January! Colorado Technical University Online, is where I am enrolled. I am going after just an Associates in General Education, for now. :)

We have a handful of new pictures we are glad to post, finally!!














Our first Christmas!! (it may not look like it outside our house, but inside we did our best!!)






That's all for now!!
