treelot tradition


We sneaked in one night at the treelot this year! For the past 6 years we have worked at the YWAM Christmas treelot and I don't know if that sounds like alot of fun to you or not, but for Reid, this is a big deal! He looks forward to this every year. And I have to be honest so do I. It's something we do together and he loves it, and because he loves it, I love it! So with Krysta's surgery on the 7th of December this year on the east coast we didn't have alot of time to get everything ready to go...but one thing for sure, we had time to work a day at the treelot and here are the pics to prove it.





Reid is a really hard worker at the treelot and knows these are the best trees because they come from Oregon! So yeah, it was fun and we were glad to get our day in so the tradition lives on!

baby therapy at WRAMC


the other day at Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) they were bringing around these great dogs to visit the patients..they call it "pet therapy". It helps the patients heal, calm down, etc. Nothing like a visit from a friendly, fun-loving, cute doggie to cheer you up..and it worked Krysta loved it. But I have to admit I found a better therapy for her...I call it "baby-therapy". Everyday I walk in the room and she forgets how much pain she is in for a few minutes as I place Emily high on her chest. Now that little cutie will take your mind off any little aches and pain...aaww now they're sleeping!
