Christmas Eve Pictures

Wanting to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !!! This year we have spent it pretty much waiting for our miracle little girl "Isabella". When we first began our adoption process and received our LID date of 9/12/06, I thought for sure we would be receiving a referral by either Nov or Dec 2007, but it did not happen, which is fine because I know that God is preparing our Isabella for us and the timing then will just be perfect. Meanwhile, hubbie and I enjoyed the presence of the rest of the family and all of our kiddos that have joined our family - kai, aj, anna gracie and of course amanda, anthony, adam, tito and seth.

We had a blast this Christmas Eve with the tradition of the roasting of the pig, accompanied by rice, black beans, yuca & mojo, salad and cuban bread, followed by desserts.

Our family has truly been blessed, we also had some of mom's friends over to share in our cuban tradition in which they absolutely loved. New friendships were formed and our family bond became even tighter.

Thank you Lord for the wonderful family that you have given me. Thank You for all the countless blessings that you have besowed upon us and Thank You most of all for reminding us that YOU JESUS ARE THE REASON FOR THE SEASON.
