The Mota Family: Christmas #2 at Our Apartment

Mota-Vational Quotes

"Life isn't about how to survive the storm but how to dance in the rain!"
"The happiest people don't always have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have."
"Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle... when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

Christmas #2 at Our Apartment

Since our house is not quite done we got to spend this Christmas in our apartment. It was prior to Christmas day, so Santa didn't come to the apartment, but we did decide to open gifts as a family so we didn't haul all of our gifts to nana's for Christmas day. Having a small little tree and minimal decorations in a little place really makes you appreciate all of the little things about the holiday. This year, we focused a lot on our little growing family and the many blessing that we have! Sometimes its good to get a little perspective! Preston got all kinds of goodies again his favorite was probably his Imaginext Castle! He has had a ball playing with that and all the cool knights and gadgets that go along with it! Steve and I spoiled eachother as usual, here is a pic of us sporting our new sunglasses we got eachother. I love that man! We are truly blessed to have eachother and to not really NEED anything. Life is good! Can't wait to have our sweet girl join us in the festivities next year!
