Merry Christmas Newsletter

It has been a wonderful year for my family in 2008. We have oh so much to be thankful for!
Our biggest news is the addition to our family. Luke joined our family in October. What a delight! He really is a dream. Luke is a big boy, already weighing 13 pounds. He loves to watch Easton's every move and 'talk' to us constantly. Very social little guy. He looks nothing like Easton, and we're excited to see him grow up - but not too fast! We found out that he also has a milk allergy, but since cutting it out he's doing excellent.
Easton will be 3 in January, and he sure is growing up fast. He talks constantly. Most of the time he is qouting a movie, so it's funny to hear what comes out of his mouth. For instance, one day he said to Dave "woah woah, easy dad!" That's a line from Cars, btw. Right now he loves nutcrackers, Cars, Wall-E, and anything Christmas. Easton adores 'his baby', too. It's sweet to watch him talk to Luke.
Dave keeps busy playing with his boys and giving me breaks. It's so nice, and I am so grateful, to have a husband whose first priority is his family. Last January he was asked to open a new Walgreens and be their pharmacy manager. He loves where he works and what he does. I'm so glad! In his spare time he's enjoyed hunting and fishing. Dave also is diligent in running to stay healthy.I, Kelly, stay busy busy busy with my boys. I love having 2 little boys and wonder what I'd ever do with a girl! 2 is most definitley a hard transition, for me. But it's getting better. The smiles and hugs remind me that I'd sacrifice anything and everything all over again for them. It's been wonderful having both of my sisters close by. I can't believe we all ended up here-for now at least. I am loving having family around. I still spend a lot of my time decorating, and cooking, or at least researching and thinking about them. We get a lot of visitors coming through and I am so glad. So if you're ever in the area you'd better call and I am usually happy to give you a place to crash.
We are so grateful for all of our countless blessings - and you are one of them! Being healthy, except the occasional sniffle, is another huge blessing, and I treasure this every day. Never take your capable body for granted! We hope all is well with all of our loved ones and wish you A Very Merry Christmas.
