I'm sure you're dying to know...

Did Luci ever get her five golden ice skates??


She got something even better! Boy did we feel blessed this Christmas, and really the whole year of 2010.

How we made it one more year of Law School without an income is ever a mystery only known to Heaven. How we managed to score another adorable, amazing, and unbelievably easy child is a prize we don't deserve. How our little corolla has managed to chug along without any big problems is just as curious. How Jacob scored a job so early in the game etc... All is a mystery, until we remember that someone almighty and majestic is at the helm of our little lives. Then it doesn't seem so mysterious. We are so grateful to our Heavenly Father and Savior whom we trust even when times don't seem so curiously wonderful.

I'm glad I could extend the Christmas spirit for you just a little bit longer with my late Christmas message. continue on for more...

Luci says that all the people with their decorations still up are simply, "still celebrating Jesus' birthday". I know it's cold and it's January, but there is so much to celebrate! Are we like Martha from the story in Luke 10? The savior answered to Martha, “Martha, Martha, thou art troubled about many things”. But Mary, she was focused on the more important things. When we focus on the Savior we will be able to rejoice! Even without all the Christmas hub bub and decorations to remind us.

I love how you see the hand of God in your lives. You really can't be successful or happy without it and without the gospel. There's no way we would have what we have in our lives without obedience to the gospel principles and including Him in all we do. Love you for acknowledging that! Come visit!
