Our Annual Christmas Update

Every year since we were married, we have sent out a Christmas card and family update letter. This year, we thought it was time embrace more technology. We've still kept the traditional touch of a Christmas card that has been sent out to our friends and family near and far through snail mail. However, instead of the traditional letter, we directed you to our family blog (which you are now reading). This way you can see our year blow by blow through our posts. :)

As you can tell, we're getting a jump on things since Thanksgiving is just days away. This year has proved to be more busy than ever. So it was time to get ahead or get left in the dust of the holiday season.

The highlights of 2013 can be seen in the 7 or 8 blog posts below. Most importantly, we officially made it official with Tabitha. She took our name, "Everitt," and according to the laws of the land, she is ours forever and ever.  Even though she was ours from the moment we laid eyes on her, we have the paperwork to prove what was always true in our hearts. We continue to thank God every day for His perfectly laid plans for our lives with all the hormones, drama, taxi stops, volleyball practices, cheerleading uniforms, homework hours, youth activities, "coaching" sessions, car conversations, and night time prayers. We are officially the parents of a teenager!!!

May this Christmas season bring you love, joy, and hope with friends, family, and our Savior.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.  ~Luke 2:10-12
