So Far This Holiday Season...


We've been sick!  It started with Lilly and worked it's way up,  Rick just started feeling it's wrath a few days ago.  We have been completely miserable.  Which is a real bummer this time of year! 


We did however get to go make gingerbread houses with Rick's family right before the plague hit so at least we got to enjoy that!!  I feel like I have been such a slacker lately!  I didn't take any pictures at Thanksgiving or post anything.  So, Thanksgiving is always bitter sweet for us, we get to spend the whole day with family, but Rick almost always has to work (and he did work this year.)  But we had plenty to be thankful for!  The kids got to sit in our nice warm home and watch the parade together, we have a roof over our head and plenty of food to eat, which is a lot more then a lot of folks these days!  We also have each other!  And so many other countless things that make our lives comfortable!  Most of all we have our Father in Heaven and The Savior Jesus Christ to be thankful to, for with out them none of this would be possible!


On an exciting note, Rick passed the exam to go to paramedic school, and also received word that Hall Ambulance will be sponsoring him to attend!  We are nervous excited and I am super proud of him!!!  I know he will do great!!  Matthew will also be starting preschool the first Monday in January!!!  Both of my boys will be going to school!!  Rick also celebrated his 28th birthday!  We had a small gathering with some family and friends!  We played games, had cake and celebrated Rick's birth!
