This years christmas has been nothing but successful! I had the blessing of being able to experience this holiday with my own little family. It feels so good just being surrounded by the ones you love most. This christmas has also open my eyes, and my heart. Letting go of things that truly don't matter, and opening my eyes to the greatest blessings in life. From family festivities, to simple moments at home with loved ones, whatever it was that I was doing, it brought nothing but joy.
It felt so good to be reunited with childhood friends this past week. I had the opportunity to go on a couples night out with the Atiga's, and also Ricky and mele (who should probably put a ring on it now, Lol...no rush, just hurry up! hahahaha.) and they have no idea how much they have impacted travis and I. It felt so good going out with people who face the same challenges and blessings that you go through as a couple. Just being able to talk about things, and going, "OMG, so are we!" or, "Yeah, that's us too." Being able to connect in some sort of way, and it was good to know that we're not alone. We have friends of our very own who are enjoying the life that we are enjoying also. As crazy as it is to look at how far we have come, and it's even more crazy that we are able to stay connected throughout all the years. I am thankful for great friends, and cannot wait to see how each of us blossom within our own individual lives and families.
Family time will always be the best time, and I am more thankful that my circle of family has grown this year. From church members who have become family like, to my husbands family, who are truly lovable people. Being able to cross paths with many this year has made life become a whole different purpose for me. I have been exposed to various kinds of families, all in which have taught me the simple necessities and teachings in which I should practice with my very own. It's nice being able to go to family gatherings, and seeing how everyone has grown and the improvments all have achieved throught the year. Besides being reminded of the birth of our savoir, this season has also reminded me the puropse of family. No matter what the circumstance may be, thru the thickest, and the thinest- family is there, and will always be there.
I hope that the holidays have brought joy to you just as much as it has for me. Peace and Love!
