the best christmas gift.


On December 8th, we received the best gift of our lives: James Patrick was born happy and healthy at 7:22pm. He clocked in at 7 pounds and 12 ounces and measured 20.5 inches from head to toe. Finding out the gender in the delivery room was truly one of the best surprises of my life. It was agonizing to not know toward the end, but I am so glad we waited. It made his birthday that much more special. I promise to share more about {jv}'s arrival in the coming weeks.

We have been soaking up every little moment with {jv}, which also means I have been rather absent from the blogosphere. Your love on Instagram and Facebook warms my heart each time I have a second to "catch up" on life outside of our little bubble. I may not be able to reply to each and every comment, but I most certainly cherish them.

When I first found out I was due at the holidays, I will admit that I didn't love the idea. My tune has totally changed. As cliché as it sounds, {jv} is truly the best present I've ever received. His arrival has made this (and every future) holiday season infinitely more special. If you'd like to see more of our little {jv}, click here to join our journey on Instagram. Have a very merry Christmas -- and I'll be back with much more soon! xoxo {av}

  6. Normally it is not passable. But with the support of individuals, HUF can build capital. For instance one my friend is having 4 individual files and 1 HUF file in his family. They do money lending. The individuals are giving loans to HUF at a bank rate of interest and the HUF is giving loans to others at a higher rate of interest.

  7. I would contact the local community paper and have them do a free spot in the paper for you. It will not cost you anything and it is free. or call the local news and they might do a free newspot. You can also get the local radio station to come out and do a broadcast for special promo the day you open. It might cost alittle bit. Billboards are also a good thing but alittle costly.

Players can choose to play as one of nine classes in these teams, each with different strengths and weaknesses. Unlike most other Source-powered games, Team Fortress 2 features a cartoon art style and non-realistic graphics.
