Being with Family!

I didn't get to blog about Christmas, but I have thrown some pictures in this blog. We had a great time at my parents. My brother's family was there and my grandmom. It was nice to spend time with everyone and catch up on things. Ashley and Brandon are getting so big. My grandmom is doing great from her stroke a few years back and enjoys being able to come to my parents house more often since they've moved to the Lancaster area. Drew loved Christmas this year. Papa bought him every Thomas toy and Thomas movie there is. He also got a fish'n game, candyland, a big rocking horse, gloves, a watch, and we can't forget superman clothes. I will throw in more pictures in my blogs through the week.

The last couple of days have been great. Aaron had the whole weekend off as usual and then Monday off for the holiday and called off today due to the weather we were hit with. Yes, it snowed here in Buffalo. I must admit we have had a mild winter and to that we are greatful. Aaron is such a help around the house to me and with the kids. It was great to be able and spend some extra days with him and Drew loved it. Drew loved helping daddy shovel and play in the snow together. Alyssa just has him wrapped around her little finger and squeals when she sees him. Sunday we had a great time at church and were able to see a little more of the vision the pastor has for the church. He has met with the deacons to possibly purchase a van to start a van ministry. Aaron and I are praising the Lord again to see this pastor having a vision to reach the community and not only talking about it but doing something about it. Monday we went to his parents and Aaron's mom made a delicious turkey dinner. It was great to spend some time and fellowship with his family. Today Drew and daddy shoveled and played outside. We all then ran some errands together, went out to eat, and came home to play some games. I enjoy so much being with my family and spending time with them.
