Christmas is Almost Here!!

We are so excited that Christmas is literally right around the corner.  We are excited to be close to family for the holiday, and we are looking forward to going to New England.  It has been 5 years since we had Christmas in New England!  The last time we were their for the holiday, Paul and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary (of dating).  That was December 26, 2005.  We had recently bought our first home, and Paul and Donnie had officially been Florida residents for six months.  Now, five years later, we have gotten married, been foster parents, sold our home, moved into the home my inlaws purchased in Florida as a future retirement home, adopted our son, and purchased our second home.  We hope to be in this home for a long time!  Most recently, we had family pictures done.  My friend Teresa did them for us.  She is a really good photographer and has a small photog business on the side (she daylights as a nurse).  Here is a sneak peak at some of the pictures we had done. We had them done at Lake Mirror in downtown Lakeland!
