Better Late Than Never!

Christmas Letter 2008

We want to wish you and your families a Happy Holiday and hope it is full of love and laughter! What an eventful year it has been.  It has been full of so many adventurous blessings.  Learning how to be parents was probably top of the list, it was hard yet rewarding. Time really does fly and we have learned to cherish the moments.

Chris is busy with his nose in his Organic Chemisty book. Earlier this year he decided that the Chiropractic Field is where he wanted to go instead of Physical Therapy so that required just one more class to take which has been a tough one!  He has turned in his applications to Western States (Oregon), Parker (Texas), and Palmer (Iowa). He is more partial to Iowa but we will just have to see what happens. He is thinking seriously of joining the Military again to help pay for school.  He already has eight good years which means he would be in a very good position when he went in again.  He would only have to be in twelve more years and we would have a retirement from the Military.  We feel pretty strong about it but just have to look at all of our options.  He is also working on his personal training and stays busy at the gym.  This summer he will sell for AMP Alarm probably in Virginia which we are super excited about. He loves being a daddy and is a wonderful husband.

Kerri is staying busy being a stay at home mom and working her home business in Mary Kay.  She enjoys her Turbo Kick-Boxing and will probably start teaching a class next semester.  She is still doing every body's hair and loves it, she only wishes we had a mini salon she could tote around with her...haha!  She thinks being a wife and mother is so wonderful and looks forward to every tender moment with Treyson.

Treyson has gone from a newborn to a semi walking ambitious one year old.  He loves trucks, balls, and shovels.  He is definitely all boy!  He enjoys story time and playing patty cake and peek-a-boo.  He thinks its funny to pull everything out of drawers and loves to dance.  He learns something new everyday and keeps us laughing.  We are so grateful for him and the joy he brings into our lives.

We wish everyone a Happy New Year and hope 2009 is filled with lots of happiness!
