It's Official!

Its officially the 1st day of the Christmas countdown! Yeah for the kids! And its officially 2 weeks away from my birthday! Yeah for me! (Of course, Brent likes to countdown to his birthday! Which he already started first...about a month ago! Thats aside from the fact that my birthday comes 2 days before his!)

We are officially a happy-blended family. (Despite whatever you're hearing!)

Yes, we are 'officially' taking shots for our Family Christmas photo. Kai likes this one!

I am 'officially' declaring that' a little bit of lipstick goes a long way!': Keala asked for a little bit prior to our 'photo-shoot' and she had the most beautiful smile in every one of these pictures! (Good enough to rival that of her step-sister!)

We are 'officially' bringing our family goal of the year to an end. All of the chains on the tree behind us respresent a service that someone in our family performed each week this year. It is a pretty amazing display of thoughtfulness.

The children are 'officially' getting along. Ok, now I'm pushing it! They're kids! How else are they going to act?! We still love to tease each other, but theres a lot of love here too!

And Brent and I are 'estatic' to declare he 'officially' started his first day back at work today! We just barely heard last week that he would start again at Morris Murdock Travel, almost doing the same thing he did when he left 4 years ago. But his position is more simple until he can 'prove' himself and work back up to a bigger 'leadership position'. Either way, he has a job and starts today! Hooray!
