Christmas eve

Christmas Eve was such a wonderful day.  We relaxed in the morning and then got ready for our church's Christmas eve service, it was SO good and always a wonderful message. 
 
 this isnt the greatest picture of us, but one of the only ones we got!
Uncle Dave & Auntie Ton came with us as well :) 
After Christmas Eve service, we headed to Josh's aunt and uncle's house for a fabulous Korean meal.  They make it every year and I am already bummed to miss next year.  So good. 
It is not easy getting a picture of this girl anymore!  She is running all.over.the.place! 
Being silly at great aunt Tammi & great uncle Daves
Christmas eve night, Kal is opening her new jammies to wear on Christmas day!  New tradition?  Check!

We had such a wonderful day & night!  I was also prepared and didnt have to do much so Joshua and I watched Christmas Vacation and then headed to bed.  I love that movie.  Hilarious.  I think that is going to be a new tradition.

Happy New Year!!!

I cannot believe how fast 2011 went!  I thought life went by fast before a baby, yet this past year seriously went soo quick! 

Here is Kallen last NYE.  Such a tiny little babe!
   
Here is Kal on the 30th I believe....She is a crazy girl! 
This year has been a wonderful crazy ride.  It goes without saying that we miss our sweet Emma every single day and wish she was here.  We are excited for the new year and all it holds!!!

Hope everyone has a fabulous New Year!  We have a birthday party later today for mister Adrian!  We cannot wait to celebrate his first birthday!!!

December 23rd

Yes, yes I know.  Get your stuff together Ang, it is the new year but I want to document our Christmas'!  I am hoping to finish all this week :)

On December 23rd we celebrated with my family for our Danish Christmas, Lille Julaften.  It was such a great time!!   We ate, danced around the Christmas tree, sang Christmas songs and then Santa came.  Kal still wasnt a fan as seen below :)  
We first stopped by at Josh's grandparents on our way there.  We were only there for about 20 minutes or so but it was nice to say hi!
 
melt.my.heart.  I die at this picture of them looking at each other!  So adorable.  
Uncle Chrissy & Kallen
 Yeah, everyone has a 'danish' shot before after dinner :)
 Dancing around the Christmas tree
 
 Yes, the girl was.not.happy!  Ha!  Maybe next year?

still here!

I am still here!  I am so behind on blogging.  Josh is off this week so you would think I would have time to blog but it actually gives me less time!  We have been pretty productive around the house which is a great way to start out the new year!  I plan on 2012 being a productive year!   
 
I was so worried because I thought I lost my camera on Christmas Day.  Thanks to my wonderful husband who found it yesterday though, I am so excited!  This means many blog posts to come, friends.  Also, I received Kallen's first birthday photo's yesterday so I will finally post about her birthday too!

I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas, ours was very merry and bright :) 

Be back soon!

Sassy, stubborn wife...happy 4 years!

Four years ago today I not only married my husband, but I married my very best friend. 
When I think of our last four years, I have such a full heart.  We have been through so much and sometimes already feel like the old married couple :) 
No it isnt perfect.  I am a sassy stubborn wife.  I like to think he enjoys putting up with a sassy stubborn wife.  Right, babe??!!  
Such a wonderful husband.Dad.best friend.  I couldnt ask for better! 
this is a flashback wishing I was still this young/skinny picture...boy have we grown changed!  
I love you Joshua!!  Now hurry home, Kal and I miss you!!!!

The Story

Have you heard of The Story Tour?  (from their website) THE STORY, a musical journey from Genesis to Revelation. 

We went on Saturday to the matinee showing and it was undeniably, unbelievably, AMAZING!  
 We had great seats!  We were right to the side, but practically the front row! 
There were the best leaders and singers. 
 Um Selah?  Yes please!! 
 Natalie Grant!  Unbelievable! 
Steven Curtis Chapman, Newsboys, Francesca Battistelli, Natalie Grant, Selah, Anthem Lights, and Rawsrvnt.  Need I say more? 
Here they are singing all together, gave me chills!
There are truly no words to explain how wonderful this show was.  I cannot say enough good things.  I laughed, cried, prayed, sang, you name it, it was probably done.  
Yesterday the hubs and I spent about an hour on itunes purchasing practically EVERY song from EVERY group/singer that was there that we didn't already have.  Including Christmas music of course!  One of my new favorite groups -Anthem Lights, 'Do you hear what I hear'?  AMAZING
I could go on and on. 
A huge thank you to our best friends for a wonderful afternoon spent together, and most importantly praising Jesus!!!!!!!!  It was such a perfect event to remind us of the TRUE meaning for Christmas!
