Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2010

We had such a wonderful Christmas this year! We went to Sevierville and spent 4 days with my family and then spent Christmas day at the Dream Come True Farm with Ryan's family. Wilson LOVED opening all his presents, and screaming out "THOMAS!!" I can hear him in the living room playing with all of his toys now!!
The Lord has overwhelmingly blessed my family this year! We have had a great time in the Boro as Ryan finished school and spending time with Liz and the boys. As I reflect it's amazing to see how God has taken care of us in so many ways! We couldn't of gone through the last year without mine and Ryan's parents. I could cry to think about the love and support they gave us! God is so GOOD and I give ALL the Glory to Him! I am looking forward to see what the Lord has for us back at our house in Maryville in 2011!!

A Day in a Life...

Wow, it has been a while so this will be a short and sweet "A DAY IN A LIFE OF THE SHEPHERDS." We moved to M'boro in January for Ryan to get his Master's! And well he did! He graduated with Honors on Dec. 18th, I am so proud of him. The last year has consisted of us getting through school, me working part time, Ryan working two jobs, and Wilson starting pre-school. He has loved attending Northside Preschool! So with a boy our days are spent having fun playing outside (with Carter and Mason), playing with tractors and trains and of course riding our dirtbikes around the apartment! Wilson is talking like crazy and has the funnest personality! We are moving back to our house in Maryville in January and Ryan will fly until he gets an Air Traffic Control Job which will take about a year or so. God has continually blessed our lives with friends and family! I never want to take for granted a second with my precious family. I love my boys!!
