Grandma got run over by two reindeer!Merry Christmas! We had a really nice, quiet day with just the four of us. Truly one of our happiest yet! I remember how last year at this time I was a "little" sad because we had wanted kids for so long and it just didn't seem possible. But wow what a difference a year can make! We just never know, do we? When I mentioned quiet, it was honestly the quietest Christmas either one of us had experienced. Not that that is a bad thing, but I really did miss the chaos and mayhem of Christmas past. Especially talking with all the Mozingo's out in the country this morning and hearing all the noise and screaming and laughing. I can just picture everyone. Some sitting quietly in the corner, just observing the hilarious scene that is before their eyes and others using hand made microphones to try and have their funny story heard above all the others!! And then talking to my sister when they got to my dad's this afternoon. Knowing that she is going shopping alone tomorrow as well, it just makes sense that we should go together, doesn't it? Then I hear Hannah and Matthew in the background and wish James and Audrey could be spinning in the red chair that Grandaddy so sweetly taught them to sit in and spin till they get sick! But my sadness only lasts for a few fleeting moments when I get a glimpse of my precious husband and darling children. And I remember how a few months ago there was a slight chance we might have had to spend Christmas with them in the Hospital. Suddenly the quietness of our little house way out here in Grady county doesn't seem so lonely!

We have truly been blessed far beyond measure this year. We have so much to be thankful for. Most of all for our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ for without Him all the joys of Christmas would not be possible. When I think back over this past year, I can honestly say that once again we have been showered with blessings that we do not deserve. In March we found out we were gonna have a baby! In April we found out it was gonna be twins! In June (after much prayer and discussion) we decided to move and moving to a new place with new people can always be kinda scary but everyone here in the community and especially at Tired Creek have been so generous and loving. We immediatly felt at home and have never felt out of place since. In July we found out we were having a boy AND a girl! We went on MANY preaching trips during the summer and on October 2 our most wonderful boy and girl came a little early! Almost into November we got to bring our little bundles home and had our 1st Thanksgiving as parents. Now we have had our 1st Christmas as parents and other than the 1st one as husband and wife, it has been the best one yet.

We want to tell all of our family and friends how much your love and support every year means to us. But especially this past year. We have experienced many changes and some have been hard for some of you to understand. Like moving, or not moving and having not one but two premature infants that can't be around children and large crowds which are the TWO things that make up both of our families! But your love and support have never waivered and we are so thankful for you all. We love you and the good Lord willing, next Christmas we will get to be with you! All our love and Merry Christmas!
