Amazing Christmas!

I will download pictures soon!
Our Christmas 2009 was amazing!
Top 4 things im grateful for:

1.) This year, we celebrated Christmas in OUR new home! I think this is what made it the best one ever! The snow covered SOLD sign that is still in our front yard makes my eyes tear up. We are so blessed.

2.) My kids, are happy, and healthy. We are approaching Karters 4th year of being seizure free. Gavin is a completely healthy talkative 2 year old. Scott and I are in great health.

3.) We have the best friends and family ever. My phone was going crazy christmas morning with texts from friends wishing us a merry christmas. We have amazing friends and such a supportive family.

4.) We have each other, we are getting ready to celebrate 4 years of marriage! I cant beleive how time flies!

2009 was a hard year for many of our friends, many have lost parents or other loved ones, or have experienced heartache beyond belief. Our prayer list has never been so big. We continue to hold these people in our hearts.

Ol Dan Tucker

Last night a conversation went on like this....
Gav- "mommy sing me ol dan tucker"
me- "okay baby ready..
"old dan tucker was a fine old man
washed his face in a frying pan
combed his hair with a wagon wheel
died with a toothache in his heal
CHORUS:
get out the way for ol dan tucker
hes too late, to get his supper
suppers over and dinners cookin
old dan tucker just stands there looking
old dan tucker he went to school '
there he learned the golden rule
reading writing arithmatic
all that learning just made him sick
chorus
ol dan tucker he went to town
grabbed the girls and he spun em around
gave a kiss to his favorite one
never had he had so much fun
chorus
ol dan tucker, he got drunk
fell in the the fire and he went kerplunk
chunk of the coal got caught in his shoe
oh my mercy how the ashes flew
chorus"

Gav- "i wuv you mommy soo much"
Me- "i love you too gav!"

Of all the lullabys i remember singing with my mom and grandma, this is one of the ones i remember most, the pictures in my head of ol dan tucker, being a awkward, crooked man are still with me today.
