The GREATEST <3Gift<3 Of ALL.

Christmas Eve 2009. 11:28 p.m., and the family is all snuggled up on the couches, watching a movie, and I've been on the computer re-playing videos from AMW & Wheel of Justice, and I'm now sitting here, reflecting on what a blessing-filled year this has been. I know I blog about this alot, but I can't help it. I'm just SO THANKFUL for everything. I just feel like I don't have enough words to express my gratefulness to all of you.

I remember last Christmas, still waiting on DNA results to come back from the FBI lab, and wondering what this year would hold, and my God, it was worth the wait. I just still cannot BELIEVE that an arrest was made, and all that's happened. From the local media being so wonderfully involved in reminding the public of my case and keeping them aware of what's happened over the years, to flying to Washington D.C. to meet John Walsh & be on the set of America's Most Wanted, to receiving that phone call in the early morning hours of October 13, 2009 that an arrest had been made...and then having an OUTPOURING of support, and so many of you write me and share your own stories...I just have been blessed, incredibly, and couldn't have done it without all of your prayers and support.

So, this Christmas, I am celebrating PEACE.OF.MIND...the GREATEST GIFT OF ALL. Thank you all for blessing me with your support and prayers. The power of prayer is amazing, and Jesus is the REASON for the Season!


Merry Christmas To All...And To All A Good Night!

Oh, The Weather Outside Is Frightful..

Who would have thought that it would be freezing cold, and raining with a possibility of SNOW here in Texas around the Holiday Season? Now, that's just pure luck! I've lived here in Texas my whole life, minus a year or two, and it's snowed 3 times. Well, I'm lying. One of those times it was just big, boulder chunks of ice...but in Texas, that can suffice for snow. Anyway, the weather is frightful outside...people in Texas don't know how to drive in Snow! I'll turn on the news tonight, and there will be car wreck after car wreck. No bueno.

On our Houston news, there will probably be stories of break-in's again tonight. What is wrong with people around this time of year? I just don't get it. The other day, my best friend (who is 5 months pregnant) left her home with her 2 year old son to go to a doctor's appointment, and while she was gone, her front door to her home was kicked in, and thieves stole all kinds of things from them. Oh, and I forgot to mention that my best friend's husband is a Marine and just got back from Afghanistan in June. Do people not realize that when you break into someone's home and take their belongings, you take much more than that? You take their sense of peace and security. To know that my 2 year old god son stood in the living room of his home and cried and said "bad guy" and pointed to the missing television...makes me so sad.


Well, Jonathan and I finally got the Christmas lights up! Apparently either hanging Christmas lights, or Thanksgiving makes me sick, because by last Sunday, I was laid up in bed until yesterday. I had strep throat, the flu...and anything else that could cling on to me. I felt horrible, but I'm starting to feel back to normal now...but I'm sure as soon as I step outside today, my throat will swell up and order me back to bed.


I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and survived Black Friday. I skipped out on the shopping in the stores and did most of it online. So much easier than fighting the crowds!




Here are some pics of our lights and tree I thought I'd share:
