Soooooo excited!



We're not even close to being ready for Christmas... we haven't even put our tree up yet (ghasp!) I think since Nyla is so little I just want to keep things at a level where she can understand something great is about to happen. If we have all the decorating etc done reeeeally early, she'll just get used to it. This way she'll be completely blown away. (This is my excuse and I'm sticking to it).
I'm trying to decide if we should wait until Darryl's sister gets here so she can be part of the fun. I think leaving it to the 23rd is pushing it though.
Nope, I've just decided we're going to get on it this weekend.


I love Christmas, but usually I'm pretty low key about presents. Don't get me wrong, it's nice to give and receive presents, but it's just not the big shebang for me. This year though, is different. I'm beyond excited... I'm all twitchy excited. I feel like a little kid. I am very happy to share the news that I am now (well, I guess soon to be since I'm not allowed to use it till after Christmas...) the proud owner of my very own little stained glass studio. Absolutely everything I need is just waiting for me to get my hot little hands on. So, guess what you'll all be getting NEXT year :)


We've had some fairly mild weather lately so Nyla and I have been able to get outside to play. She's so cute in her abominable snowbaby suit. She can barely walk when she's all dressed up, but she still has fun.



Freaking crazy about her sled. She screamed the whole time we were walking (fun scream not scared scream).



She loved it. She decided that snow is 'YUCKY' to eat though when she faceplanted :) She's the bee's knees.


I'm not going to update on Darryl right now. I just don't want to get into it all. If you want the latest info call me, or Diane (hope you don't mind Diane).
Oh, we aren't doing our fun Christmas cards this year. Time just got away on us! Sorry dudes!
That's all for now... I think.

Beautiful Kayla



My heart is breaking. Beautiful little Kayla passed away today. I'm sorry, I can't say more right now. I'll share the email I received. Please remember Julie and Jason - I can't imagine what they're going through right now.

At 2:53am on December 2, 2007 Miss Kayla Evelyn Weber went to dance in Heaven with our Dear Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Kayla was in her loving, beautiful parents arms with her friends, family and Doctors right by her precious side.
Not long before she passed I witnessed her open her stunning blue eyes one last time and look right into her Daddy's eyes.
All of our hearts are breaking and we are so thankful for the year with this child we never thought we would get.
Kayla has always been and was till the very end A FIGHTER! We are all better souls by having known Kayla! We will love deeper, laugh louder and dance longer just in honor of her.
God Bless you all! I wrap my arms around all of you as well...I know this hurts you as much as it does us.
Arrangements and further information will be provided at the soonest time possible.
In respect of their grieving...please contact me if you so shall need or wish.
