I have been neglecting my blog through the holidays, for that I'm sorry! We spent some time in California with all of our family. It was EXHAUSTING. FULL days of travel from place to place and unfortunately it was still not enough. We did our best to see everyone but we wished we were there longer because there was still a lot more family & friends we wanted to see and spend time with. Christmas was amazing. Probably one of the best in my life. We flew into San Francisco which was crazy, that airport is gigantic. We had a driver take us to the Inn at Spanish Bay. We had a few hours before my parents got there so we went for a walk down to the beach. It is so beautiful there! We loved it! We walked around most of the property just taking it all in. After my parents got there we went to dinner at Mission Ranch I think it was called. It just so happened it is Clint Eastwood's restaurant and he was there having some drinks. Zack golfed with my brother, dad and dad's friend. It was an awesome experience for him. He loved it! We headed back to Bakersfield and then the madness began! All of the time we had in Bakersfield was spent going and going and going. I had all of the presents to wrap to both sides of our family so I got very little sleep and we literally were nonstop, all day, everyday. I am still tired thinking about the amount of stuff we fit into such a short time. I think with all that has been going on in our life and having surgery only 2 weeks before we did pretty good holding it together for the family and doing our best to spend some time with everyone. Next year will hopefully be more time home and significantly less stressful as we still hope to have a baby in our family.
This last few months has been extremely hard on Zack and I. In fact this whole year has been insane. From the remaining few weeks of deployment to Zack's return, moving to Texas, our anniversary, the baby journey and everything in between! We are really looking forward to a fresh start in 2011 with all the happiness and love we can stand. We are so blessed to have been given the opportunity to live here. As hard as it was to move from California it was definitely the best decision I have ever made. God had a bigger plan and knew that this place is exactly where he wanted us. We have grown so much and grown together that has made our bond unbreakable. We have gone through every emotion a person can go through this year and had to deal with so much. No one will ever know how hard 2010 has been in our life. People always say the 1st year of marriage is the hardest, they have NO idea. It is insane to think back on this year and all we have overcome. We are SO, SO, SO, thankful to have had the prayers and support of our family and friends. We are SO excited and ready to face 2011 and what we believe will be one of the best years of our life. We love you all!
Have a blessed, safe, health and love filled new year!
Keep dreaming your dreams and enjoying your journey!!
