BIG NEWS From Our Friend SocialWrkr24/7!!

Sometime back I called on my awesome prayer warriors and positive buddies to hold my dear friend up as a cancer diagnosis had come from out of the blue. 

Please check out the latest in her post:

God is SO GOOD!

Ultimate Girls Day Out...

So yesterday, we went there...

Cheered like maniacs from here...

(No lie, my voice is SHOT)

Had a few of these...

AND WE WON in OVERTIME.. We're Headed to New England, Baby!

But best of all, I got to spend the afternoon with one of my besties.. much needed, might I add.

A PERFECT GIRLS DAY (for Broncos fans.. Steelers fans?  Not so much..) 

:-)

Eyes In The Back My Head?

Maybe..

Maybe Not..

Now THIS Is The Way...

To Start The Day!!!

Actually, a heck of a way to start the YEAR.. Great first post of 2012, if I do say so, myself.. 

(Little Buddy couldn't quite get "Thankful" to fit... LOL)

Hasta La Vista 2011...

... And Good Riddance!

I usually do a fun year in review post and talk about all the crazy highs and lows.  Not this time.. I'm just not going there.  2011 was one of the hardest years of my life and I'm happy to leave it behind.

Sayonara, Adios, Buh bye.

On a positive note, I did make some amazing new friends, found my laughter and I'm getting my groove back.  I feel like me again.. just a new and improved version.  More appreciative and mindful of my blessings, for sure.

Big News:  Yesterday I filled out the paperwork to change LittleBuddy and SweetPea's names for their revised birth certificates.  I had to leave my desk and go into the bathroom because I burst out crying...

Tears of joy ROCK!

So here's to 2012.. To finalizing the adoption, making new memories and getting our joy on. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Christmas Snapshots..

Beginning...

Middle...

End...

And today, we rest.

I hope everyone had a VERY Merry Christmas!

Where Tree Tops Glisten..

And children listen
to hear sleigh bells in the snow...

I'm Dreaming ...

Of A White Christmas...

And it's still snowing! WOOT!

BIG BIG BIG NEWS!!!

Got word from my social worker today.. the appeal has been DE-NIED and we're moving forward with adoption!!!!!!!!!!  I swear I cried and shouted all in the same breath.

GOD IS SO GOOD!
