It is offical, my husband is home with me and done with tech school!!!! I am so happy, life is so much better with him around!!!
The graduation was exciting (Nikki liked the echo the room made, so she wasnt quiet for a second) and it was great to meet the guys Randy has been spending all his time with for the last 7 months. I am just so glad he is home!!! YAY!

Service
This season is wonderful!!! I am enjoying it all, except the fact that when I get my husband back has now become unsure. I have had the opportunity to participate in service for my family and friends, but I have also witness greater services that have really been answers to prayers. It fills my heart with gratitude to know a friend is struggling, and they are between tears and prayers, and someone (I honestly don't know who) dropped a large sum of money off on their door step. To be so in tune to the spirit to have answered such a large prayer. How wonderful that is.
We are doing 2 Christmas Chains, one requires a service from each child before the end of the day, and the other is reading bits of the Christmas story, and prophecies of Christ birth each day. I am LOVING this. my house is so much stronger with the spirit. The kids are looking and excited for service, and I hate to admit we are for the first time reading scriptures nightly.
Christmas is truly not about receiving gifts. I love to give them, and they are nice, but to give, and give something needed.... that is Christmas.

Chrsitmas
I am so excited for Christmas this year. Randy will be here, we move (again) and... it is CHRSITMAS!!! I love watching my girls be so excited. They are planning Jesus' birthday party, and are so excited. They also know that Daddy will be home, and that encourages even more excitement.
We have been talking alot about service, and how that is more important then receiving this Christmas. Becuase of this Kimber has starting going through her toys to decided which toys will go to which friend. I really don't know if I will actually let her give all her toys away, but I know we are planning on a trip to the store to pick out a gift for toys for tots.
We decorated last night, all but the tree. I loved watching them wake up so excited to see everything, I can hardly wait for Christmas morning.
I wish you all a wonderful holiday season, and a very Merry Christmas!!!
