I love family! I always wanted to be apart of a big family and hoped one day I would marry into one...well guess what? I did and now I love my small little family even more!

They are great and although I struggle with them and don't always feel like it is right that is what I need to do. So to all my wonderful family out there I'm going to be making some changes and putting up some boundaries that will be better for my immediate family and I apologize now if it offends anyone but Miah, Rex and myself come first and this is what I have to do.

Last year we tried doing the Three Wise Men Gifts but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug...
Boundaries are good in every situation, especially family! ;)
