This year for Christmas we went to Utah. It was so much fun! We went and saw Zoolights wight AJ's family and Temple square. We also spent Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with them too. Then later that day we went to my Mom's house and even saw the Grinch too! Saturday we went to my Dad's where we went to Hardware ranch with him my grandma and me and AJ. We got to see and visit with so much family I wish it could have lasted a lot longer we had so much fun and a wonderful Christmas thank you so much we are so blessed we love you all!

AJ and I were in the mall yesterday. I was thinking about how neither of us had winter coats and where were we going to get one... then suddenly it pops into my head there is a Burlington Coat Factory in this mall! I turn to AJ and I say "Hey AJ do you think Burlington Coat Factory has Coats?" AJ bursts out laughing! And then replies, "They better!" LOL! So we decided to look. When we first walked in there were no coats to be found now this just made me laugh we searched the whole first floor just disgusted not realizing there was another floor. Once we went downstairs however, to our amazement there were coats everywhere! So yes they do have coats!! We immediately went on the hunt! It took a while to find one for me seeing how I have extra baggage on top and bottom LOL! At first I didn't think they were going to have my size but they do I just look like a medium size snow man is all. We also found on for AJ as well. They were very well priced have two layers one removable and I think are the best coats we have ever had. I am very pleased! Thank you Burlington Coat Factory! I would recommend it to all.

This year was our boys birthdays just barely again. We love and miss them so much. I can't believe it has been another year since they have been gone. We love you boys and hope you are safe wherever you are. This is a tribute to you. Please share thoughts and feelings. These pictures were taken the last day we saw them. WE LOVE YOU!!!!

We have a new addition to our family a baby girl. Her name is Ella. She is a Chihuahua. We just love her so much. We finally got our baby girl she 4 months old and very much a puppy. She has a lot of energy and has to be with Fernando or us at all times. Her favorite things are to play with Fernando, get treats and give kisses. Her favorite toys are toothbrushes and water bottles lol! She is a lot bigger than Fernando she weighs 7.1 pounds and he only weighs 4.6 pounds that is a big difference in puppy land. She has those gorgeous puppy dog eyes and she uses them to her advantage lol! We love her and are so happy she is in our lives!

Our 5th wedding anniversary was on Aug. 14, 2009. Unfortunately we had to spend it in the hospital because I was having complications due to my cystic fibrosis. AJ made it so wonderful and such a surprise though! I had been crying all day from pain and wanting to be anywhere but there while he was at work. I felt so bad that I hadn't gotten him a present yet. I had been in the hospital for a week so I had just had it. He finally got off and I was asleep he woke me up and gave me a beautiful diamond necklace. It is shaped like a rose and gold is actually different is called rose gold. I feel bad because it is so pretty that at first I thought it was fake oops! But it definitely is not and I love it! I never take it off unless I am in hospital and have too. I have the most gentle loving husband in the world he would do anything for me and I would anything for him. Happy 5th Anniversary babe I love you!!
