This is our Christmas tree this year,
Some things most of you may not notice, there are no ornaments, just a few candy canes. The odd part about this is that we have ornaments, and extra lights (this is a pre-lit), but in what I feel was a little bit symbolic, they just never got put up. We have had a wonderful year, though things have been a little tight. Some happy moments in the last few days (even if they made me a little sad). Due to a few wonderful weddings, we hadn't made any plans to visit anyone this year, but hearing from those of you who were so excited to see us made me happy, even if we couldn't come, though we're already making plans for next year. Overall, its been a good year to be truly grateful, to see those little miracles that have come together to make things ok. Thanks to all of you who have been a part of it, the calls and the little surprises, Merry Christmas, and all our love,
Steven and Alexis
