Are you ready??

..for something exciting? 

First of all, 

Welcome back {to me that is}! 

I'm so excited to be spending more time with you in the next few months! Thankfully graduation is over and the Christmas rush is passed. Now it is time to move on with the blog and get back into the swing of things. 

Now, onto the exciting part!

A few weeks ago I mentioned that an announcement would be coming soon. 

I wanted to wait until our family and close friends knew, but now we are free to let the world know...

Baby #2 will arrive sometime around July!

We are more than thrilled to be given another child as a blessing from our Father. 

In other exciting news, I have some new things in the works for the New Year! You know, New Year New You New Blog...you catch my drift. So enjoy your weekend and ringing in the the New Year--then check back here for some New Year updates!

Christmas {a day late}

Merry Christmas!

Hoping your Christmas was filled with the joy and hope of our Savior, Jesus Christ! 

May you and your family have a wonderful Holiday season and a Happy New Year!

finally!

We FINALLY made it! 

On Friday, I finished up my student teaching and officially finished up my under-graduate degree! 

Hooray!

Honestly, I don't feel any different yet (as many of have ask, "How does it feel?") , but it has been good to be home with my loves for the last few days! 

With Christmas quickly approaching, this week is going to be filled with crafting, baking, wrapping, and coffee. There is so much that I want to do before Christmas arrives, and I only hope that I can get half of it done. 

Tomorrow begins a new tradition for us--The 12 Days of Christmas Kindness. I'll post more on that soon, but for now, know that we are celebrating Advent and trying to serve others in the process. 

Graduation Day is Saturday and a party to celebrate on Sunday! Folks, it is a busy week around here! Stay tuned for updates and an announcement soon! Hoping to get back into the swing of blogging now that life is slowing down a little bit. 

Much love!
