We waited until Sunday to decorate the tree. Every time a new person enters our family (either through birth or marriage) my grandparents buy two ornaments with their name on it.

Tori’s Blessing
We blessed Tori yesterday. It was a very special day! She looked beautiful and Adam did a great job. He told her she was brought to earth at this time to bring joy to her family, specifically because of the trials we are facing right now. (In case you did not know, Adam got laid …
