So a little update on us :)
Matt is so grateful to have his job at Exactware, and I am absolutely LOVING photography. The business is really spreading and I get so excited for a shoot! I also finally cut my hair, and I will post a picture soon. I might cut it even shorter! I was too scared when I got it done. Now for the hard stuff...We are pretty close to having to foreclose on our investment home, but currently we are really trying to do a short sale and plea with the bank to agree to a short sale, and agree to not take our personal home away because of the short sale. There is a lot of pleading and agreeing in there! It is crazy how much power banks have! Not a good time to own 2 homes, and be a general contractor! Anyway, we are still so happy to have each other and sweet Elder Worthlin's quote has been my motto, "Come what may, and Love it!" It really doesn't matter what happens; I have my incredibly perfect, sweet husband whom I love unconditionally and our sweet son. Life can't get any better than that.
Jay will be starting very aggressive treatment starting January and twice a month, I will be up at Primary's watching Jay's my little baby get sedated and be worked on like crazy. It has gone down a little since his treatments 6 months ago, but it still will need a dozen or so more. They are basically burning the inside of his cyst and creating scar tissue so his body will stop draining lymph fluid there. I will miss his boob! It feels weird to pick up other babies with skinny armpits now!
Here is a cute little Santa to make you smile. Even though there are crazy things going on, WE REALLY ARE GRATEFUL! We are blessed! Hold tight to your families and Merry Christmas everyone!

OH Mandi! I know how you feel girl! It's a tuff time for EVERYONE. I don't care if you are the richest person out there, you feel it. But we have found that if we get really specific with our prayers, we have in return, gotten specific answers back. I know the Lord loves us and wants to bless us so I just have to have faith, that we will get through. Maybe not gloriously, but we will get through! Love ya girl!
Oh my gosh those pictures of Jay are SOOO adorable!! I'm so sorry things are so tough financially, but it sounds like you are having a great attitude about it. Good luck!
