Tis the Season! Christmas 2010...
Cancun, Mexico
Don and I have sure had an eventful month! We arrived safely from our honeymoon in Cancun...

love grows deeper and fonder each day! I LOVE this time of year! Everyone seems a little brighter, the music is uplifting and it is a time of love, service, laughter and peace.

Our Christmas was a big one! Ipods, clothes, movies and a 46" TV were some of the items we got, but spending the day with each other and watching one another open our gifts were my favorite...followed by an amazing dinner at the Galan's!
Don & I are excited to be heading to Colorado for our second wedding reception in a few days and can't wait to spend more time with our families! 2010 has been full of blessings for us!
From the deepest of our hearts, we wish all of our family & friends a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy 2011! God Bless! After all, He is the reason for the season! Let His love fill your soul with joy!
