Merry Christmas!!

"Ok Jeremy....Christmas Card Time. Be relevant, be interesting, and don't be long-winded."

Some family highlights for 2015:

- We both turned 30....it was fun celebrating this milestone since we both planned some way to make it a little extra special for the other.

- Max was born in April. He's been more than loved, especially by Big Brother. It's been an adjustment but we're excited the boys get to grow up close in age.

- It was a crazy health year for us. Max's birth, Maria's pneumonia, and my kidney & knee issues has made us feel very in tune to the healthcare system. 

- Demands of balancing good things in life. Jobs. Family. Extended Family. Vacations. Kids. All that makes the year go fast. Check out the rest of our blog for more specific happenings :)

It's our goal to keep posting life happenings here on our blog so feel free to follow along throughout the year....many of you we haven't seen lately but just know we miss you and are so thankful for all the relationships we've had in the past!

As I am once again surrounded with the Holidays, I've been thinking about what we really celebrate in Christ's birth. We celebrate the life of Christ and this is just the beginning, but we celebrate the start of something that ended at the Cross. Without Calvary there is nothing special about Christmas. The celebration of the birth is because we know what the life following means to us.

I love Christmas. The gifts. The food. The music. The nostalgia. The family time. The tree & stockings. But I love it more now than ever because of The Promise that fulfilled it.

Our God is good, ALWAYS, and praise & glory is what we give back to Him!!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Jeremy, Maria, jones, & max
