Christmas break....

Our beautiful tree and all the presents!


Karissa and her Versace perfume Christopher gave her!











The kids hearing the Christmas story
















It snowed Christmas day!! So fun!!












Dad playing with his new ATV!







The most gorgeous Christmas kitty, Curi!!




































The Halvorsons...
very special family friends. We sure love Rod and Randy!!









Todd and Danielle...next Christmas there will be 3 of them!! Can't wait to meet my niece or nephew :)













































Making gingerbread houses!!






































Hanging out with my friend, Jenn and her daughter, Mackenzie. She was born at 24 weeks and is truly a little miracle!!

















































































Hard to believe that my break is nearing its end!! It has been great hanging out with the family and also just relaxing. The kids are so big and they were so fun at Christmas!! It has also been an emotional time the last few weeks...a very dear friend of mine, Jeanne Clem passed away on December 17th after a 7 year battle with cancer. She was one of the most amazing women I've ever known and she will be deeply missed. Despite some rough days, Christmas was special- just me, Mom and Dad :) Love and miss all my Nashville friends and family....I'll be seeing ya'll soon!!

Steph, What a blast having you home. Love what God is doing in you. So good to play ping pong with you and hit over 200 times without missing. Speaking of missing, I'm already missing you. Love you, Dad
