Blogmas Post #3

There are only 22 days left until Christmas! 

The question for you today is: 

Do you have an ornament that's special to you personally or as a married couple? 

I love decorating the tree each year, its one of my favorite things to do! I looked at all our ornaments to see which one was the most special to us, I found two of them! 

The first one is this ornament. It was given to us as a wedding gift. I ordered a picture small enough to fit in it. 



The second one is this ornament. It came from my most favorite store in the whole world!!!!! If you aren't from Michigan, you probably have no idea what store I am talking about. Michigan is known for many things, one of them being a Christmas town with the world's largest Christmas store! If you ever go to Michigan, I encourage you to go to the town of Frankenmuth! While there, go and visit Bronner's, it's the Worlds largest Christmas store! They have every ornament you could imagine! Floor to ceiling is covered with ornaments, trees, decorations, wreaths....seriously the best place to be in! They will also write on your ornaments, if you would like that. I have been there many times before! Scott and I were able to go there after our honeymoon on the way back down. It was his first time going and I was so excited to be able to show him around! When I taught at a small Christian school in Northern Michigan that was one of the winter field trips! So much fun! To my Michigan friends that have been there: If you have a picture, leave it in the comments! To my Texas Friends: is there something like that here? If so, please enlighten me! 


Y'all know my love of coffee!

    We have a heart shaped Hallmark ornament that says 1979...the year we met. Another favorite on the tree is the reindeer garland Garrett made (like paper dolls). I love it. Haven’t been to Frankenmuth for over 25 years but haven’t found anything to compare with it here.

          Christmas 2017 will always be a day to remember.  That day was filled with so much sorrow and yet I received the best gift ever. What? How is that possible?  Grab a cup of coffee and let me share our story with y’all. Our Baby's precious name        When Scott and I knew that we were expecting, we had a wave of many different emotions. We experienced great happiness, joy, fear, worry, and the unknown future of this precious baby. I wanted to be prepared as we had experienced a miscarriage before. Read about our first miscarriage here if you haven’t already:     http://jenny-s-journey.blogspot.com/2015/05/miscarriage.html?m=1 .   I knew that God was the only one who could see the future life of this baby. God would know how many days or weeks the baby would grow, if the baby would make it full term, and if there would be  any compilations. I didn’t want to have to experience another miscarriage, this has been a fear of mine for a while. However,

Our 1st Miscarriage

The Story of our 1st miscarriage with Baby Nutter I am ready to share my story about having a miscarriage. They say there is healing in sharing.  What is every little girls dream? To grow up one day, get married, and have a baby. The day came when I got married, I couldn't wait to start a family! With much prayer Scott and I thought we were ready to start a family. We  had been trying for awhile and it didn't even seem hopeful. Every-time that   time of the month came around I would be sad that it didn't happen, time and time again. After what seemed like forever, I gave up on that dream of being a mom.  ~The day we found out our happy news~       I remember the day that we found out we were expecting. It was in the very beginning of December. I had finally talked my husband into letting me buy a test. He did not want me to be disappointed again. I was so nervous to even take the test even thought I was certain this time! I had waited long enough and the time
