Merry Christmas!

Hello All! Sorry that I have not posted in a while, things have just been busy as usual and I have been too tired at night to post. The munchkins are growing so fast and I am amazed at them each and every day.

* Zachary continues to amaze us with his words and loving actions. He is such a sweet boy. He is really enjoying Kids Club at church on Wednesday nights and to hear him say his memory verses almost brings tears to my eyes. I only hope these scriptures remain etched in his heart throughout his life.

* Isabelle "Izzy" keeps us busy. She is what we would call a high maintenance girl and we love her to death. She is by far the opposite of Zach in her demeanor ( I think she gets that from her mother :) She is starting to say more words and we are anxious for the day she will actually say what she wants rather than scream and point. Her brother loves her to death and they seem to play so well together.

* Sarah will be working full time from now until January and is kind of sad about not being home with the kids. She is encouraged that is just for a short period of time. Kids Club and the Praise Team at church keep her busy.

* David remains very dedicated and busy at his work. He is very glad that college football and basketball are on TV at the same time. He helps Sarah out at Kids Club as well and is enjoying playing his guitar in the Praise Band.

** We want to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Please remember the reason for the season. Now that are children are starting to grow up we are so hoping that they will realize the TRUE meaning of Christmas. We are going to leave Baby Jesus out of the manger until Christmas Morning and Zachary and Isabelle will place the Baby Jesus in the manger on that day to represent His birth. We are so excited to celebrate that day and so thankful for all the Lord has done for us. If you have a chance to listen to a song by Mercy Me "Joseph's Lullaby" please do so, it will touch your heart and spirit.
