Joel and Cass (Life As We Know It)
I know this is long long long overdue. I hope this finds everyone doing well and taking time this Christmas season to enjoy the true meaning for the season. Joel and I have been extremely busy over the past two months (I am so sorry it has taken me so long to write). We went back to Oklahoma for the first time in a year for American Thanksgiving. It was an absolutely incredible time. We ate a ton of food, which I had no objection too and chatted for hours and hours. Joel comes from a strong Christian family of Godly Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents. It is such a blessing. This past weekend Joel's parents and brother came up here for a short little visit. Once again it was great to see them. We take advantage of every opportunity. I am 14 weeks along in my pregnancy and loving life. My morning sickness and few other health concerns are starting to subside and the anticipation of our little one is sometimes overwhelming. Joel's Dad is a doctor so he brought along his doppler and we heard the heart beat yesterday afternoon. What a moment. Absolutely unbelievable. There really aren't words to describe it. That was the first of the "baby doctor stuff" that Joel has gotten to experience and he got a little emotional. It really makes it seem real! We are so excited. Anyway, this week is Christmas! MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all! May God meet you with his underscribable peace and joy this season where ever you are! Our thoughts and prayers are with you! Take care! The picture is of Joel and I at my work banquet....let the weight gain begin...but being pregnant is a good excuse right?
