Mark and David in San DiegoI just realized I completely skipped Christmas! Well, I have already deleted the pictures from my camera so I guess there will be none of those. But Christmas was wonderful! We celebrated Christmas Eve at Mark's mom and dad's house with their whole family and then came home and spent Christmas day at home. It is so much fun when the boys come down the steps and turn the corner to see the tree lit up and the gifts. Their little eyes just light up. Priceless! I will never forget Alex going straight to his new little vacuum and hugging the box. He hasn't stopped vacuuming yet! And Grant's favorite was his remote control Hummer. I think daddy loves it just as much! It warms my heart to think about Nia and that she will be here for our next Christmas. She is always on my mind and she cannot come home soon enough!
The following day we packed up the car and headed to Jacksonville to my mom and dad's house. We had our Christmas celebration with the entire family and enjoyed lots of great food and fellowship.
Last week Mark and I were fortunate to go to San Diego for several days. It was beautiful every day! Sunny and 84 degrees! Here at home it was an awful -19!! We enjoyed our time there with the Ghantous and Santana family. David Ghantous graduated from Marine boot camp. It is unbelievable what these young men and women go through to serve our country! I have so much respect for anyone who volunteers to go to any of our country's armed forces. It was so interesting to hear all of the stories about everything David went through in those three months! We are very proud of him!!
