Galilea for Chirstmas
so, on Dec. 19th. me,amber,rebecca and ryan got in the mini van and cruised 10 hours to eagle pass,texas..slep for a couple hours then cruised right on cross the border and finally made it to Casa Hogar Galilea....
we had a wonderful time. it was so AWESOME to see the kids. thanks to some really awesome people at the ring ...we were able to get the kiddos some presents. they all loved their gifts!!!
it was a short trip but really every second means the world. the kids absolutely have my heart. i love Galilea and the people there. i am so blessed and so very thankful for Galilea!!

BIG PRINCE WHITE AND LITTLE PRINCE WHITETHEY BOTH ARE STAYING THE NIGHT TONIGHT AND ITS BEEN ALOT OF FUN. DEACON IS JUST THE CUTEST THING IN THE WORLD. HE LOVES DAD AND HUNTER SO MUCH! WE ARE ALWAYS SO GIDDY WHEN HE IS HERE.
WE LOVE TALKING ABOUT HOW IN A COUPLE YEARS HUNTER WILL BE DRIVING BUT HE WILL HAVE HIS LITTLE BROTHER TO PACK AROUND TOO. HE'LL HAVE TO TELL HIS FRIENDS,"SORRY GUYS, I CAN'T GO UNLESS DEACON CAN GO TOO!"
HUNTER JUST LAUGHS!!
HUNTER REALLY LOVES HIM AND I CAN SEE A REALLY SPECIAL REALTIONSHIP BEING FORMED AND HOPE IT LASTS AS HUNTER IS TURNING INTO A TEENAGER.
HUNTER IS A GREAT BIG BROTHER.. NOT ONLY TO DEACON(1/2 BROTHER), BUT.. ALSO TO: CAMI AND ALI (SISTERS) KATY (1/2 SISTER) MADELINE (STEP SISTER) AND JOSEPH (STEP BROTHER) .. YEAH, ITS ALITTLE BLENDED BUT ITS ALL LOVE
