Gratitude List for December 21

Today I am very grateful for:

1. Being able to sing jingle bells over the phone with Colton. I can't wait for baby Gray to be able to do this too!

2. Although the past two weeks have been utterly exhausting, I am so grateful for all of the help and support I received from my co-workers. I couldn't have made it without them.

3. I am incredibly grateful that my busiest season at work is finished!

4. I am grateful that I didn't need to get stitches when I sliced my finger a half hour before our staff holiday party was starting.

5. I am very excited to be going to my brother Michael's house for Christmas. I know were going to have a joyous and relaxing time.

6. Tomorrow I will be grateful that all of my Christmas shopping is finished!

Merry Christmas!

Boulder Love

Here are some pictures of my wonderful, cute, smart and silly nephews.

This is baby Gray who is 4 weeks old today. When he is awake he is very alert!



Here is Gray asleep on his daddy's knees wearing the 3-6 month old sweater that I knit for him. It fits him already. He's a big boy!


This is me and Colton washing the dishes. He loves to help... and get his hands wet too!

This Colton with my mom, Grammy Baabaa (Barbara) making blintzes. A dinner request from my brother Ryan.


Here is my very sweet sister-in-law Brooke with Gray. She and my brother are amazing parents! Patient, loving, but lots of fun too!


This isn't the best picture, but its one of my favorite memories from this time. Colton got a hold of Ryan's MP-3 player, so Ryan was helping him listen to the music. When Colton heard the music his face would light up and he would say, "singing!!!".


I am so utterly grateful for my family and these boys that have graced our lives. What joy they bring to us all!
