The Christmas Story!

Well the stockings are hung and the kids are ready. For Santa has come and left many goodies!!! But first and most important of all we tell the Christmas Story! The TRUE meaning of Christmas. Grammpa and Todd read from Matthew and Luke and the kids have decided to act it out this year all on their own. They went running in all directions to get themselves ready. Then they set and listened. Here is a little of our Shaw side of Christmas. It brings tears of not just laughter but pure JOY in knowing that my kids know the true meaning of Christmas and are proud about it! Hope you all enjoy and have a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!

Presents!!!


My trunk is full and running over!!! Life Tab is soooo awesome. I was blessed to be part of ANGEL TREE this year. I brought a need of 2 families to the church along with many other children in the community. Life Tab always comes through! They have the spirit of giving. I was blessed to be able to meet the mothers of these 2 families and give them their children's gifts. They cried, I cried it was so amazing to see the overwhelming thankfulness they had. These children would not have had Christmas with out LIFE TAB. One family just recently lost their daddy there is 2 little girls in this family. The other had a horrible house fire and lost everything they had 3 boys. Here is picture of the trunk of my trailblazer with seats put down. It felt like Santa's sleigh Madison said. The kids were just as excited to give as we were. Thanks again Life Tab for being SOOOOO awesome!

Christmas for Christ Offering

We have a beautiful evening at church bringing offerings to help our home missionoaries Our children enjoy making a card and wrapping their money they choose out of their piggy banks. I don't tell them to give the just want to give. We are so blessed to have such wonderful children who have giving hearts.

19 Days until Christmas

We were at the Bas Pro Shop and they had reindeer!
On DANCER, PRANCER, RUDOLPH and the gang come and see us soon!

Thanksgiving

We went to Dallas and had fun with Todd's family. It was a wonderful visit. We have a family tradition that everyone says something that they are thankful for before we eat. Even the children say what they are thankful for. I shot some video but the sound did not turn out. It was really neat how Madison and Mason started deciding what they would say days before we got there. They were thankful for God, the military people, our family and Church. Oh how blessed I am with 2 wonderful children!

Let it Snow

It snowed a few weeks ago and here are the pictures I got!

I have family pictures in, but Todd says I can't blog them until I get the Christmas card out. I picked up the proof today and Todd approves.  So now all I have to do is checking my list to see who's address I am missing. So I can get them typed up and shipped out! I will keep you guessing!!!!!!!!   LOL  or keep you blogging back to see if they are here yet??????
Love YOU ALL!!!!!

Photo's with Family

Here are the pics from the photo session with Madison and Mason's cousins Lauren, Alyssa, and Andrew. These are my mom and dad(the SHAW"S) and my sister;s kids They had a great time. We try to do this at least once a year if not every 6 months. Hope you enjoy

Bragging time


I must brag on my little Madison. She is in second grade and was asked to take part in 2 UIL events. One was writing and the other Storytelling. The writing part has not been graded yet. But in the storytelling she got 6th place out of 12-15 other second graders! We are so very proud of both our kids! God has truly blessed us with great kids that are full of the Holy Ghost!

Nice Saturday!

We sure enjoyed the day today! The kids played and played. The christmas lights are hung and the tree is up. Still have to deco the tree. But it was so nice this evening we enjoyed a nice bike ride (not the harley) with the kids down our beautiful street. It was so much fun. The kids just laughed and laughed! Oh the memories we made tonight! Hope you all had a blessed day and can't wait to see you all in Sunday School!
