grateful

We kicked off 2012 with a trip to Puerto Rico! It was wonderful to be in the sunshine (although I can't complain about the winter that we've had to endure this year). We ate lots, relaxed, enjoyed spending time with family, kayaked, and snorkled! Most importantly, we are so happy that we got to see Melba Marie and Alex tie the knot and be a part of their special day. Congrats prima!

With only 10 weeks left until baby D arrives, we are busy setting up the nursery, reorganizing our house, and taking baby classes. I look forward to what the next two months will bring as we prepare for our little angel.

embrace 2012

The end of 2011 came and went. It was an eventful and unforgettable one. On December 15, Tory graduated from basic training and I went down to Atlanta to watch him officially become an infantryman in the United States Army. Needless to say, I was a very proud wifey. I'm grateful to my mom, Michelle, Tom, Fred, and Karen for making the trip to support our family. Here's a quick glimpse into graduation:

Tory, Baby D, and I would like to wish a very happy new year!! We can't wait for what's to come in 2012. :) So many exciting blessings heading our way!

New Year's Eve: 25.5 Weeks

::God, thank you for the opportunities this New Year has in store for me. Help me see the blessings, even in the roughest days. Thank you for all the doors you open for me and my family; even the ones I might not see at first. Help me to always say yes to you and to keep my eyes focused on you. Give me strength to make decisions based on my faith in you.::
