This Christmas season I have so much o be thankful for. I am so grateful for the Savior and all He has done for us to be here and I love the Christmas season for the reminder it gives us all. We are so blessed in our lives and I just can't imagine how hard it would be without the gospel and the knowledge and comfort it brings to us. Christmas this year was a little different for us because even though we live with Dave's parents they went to Oklahoma so we had our own little Christmas here with his two younger brothers. So we got to start doing some of our own things but not in our own place or with our tree or anything. So it was a little weird but we tried our best to make it work. I made clam chowder in bread bowls for Christmas eve dinner and then we made and decorated sugar cookies for dessert. On Christmas night I made a ham dinner with all the goodies but then I had to work so everyone just lazed about the rest of the night. Boyd was very into the lights everywhere this year so driving around town was really fun with him at night. Aubrey was excited too but she was sad not to see her meme and pepe and all her aunts and uncles and cousins in California this year. We tried but it just wasn't gonna work out this year. All in all it was a good Christmas so I can't complain.

I can't believe Dave hadn't already given the kids real guns?! Doesn't he know every other kid got theirs when they left the hospital at birth!!
Boyd and Aubrey look so dang cute in their PJ's!!
Oh my goodness. I had to laugh out loud when I saw the "my first gun". Crazy. I guess when you love something that much, you want your kids to love it too. Whats the word on the house?
Love the pink gun. Sounds like you guys had a good Christmas. Sweet Aubrey. I loved reading about her at the nursing home. She is such a sweet little girl with a heart of gold, just like her mom! Missing our 6:30 workouts at the dome. I sure could use it!
So any news on the house? It sounds like you had a great Christmas! The guns are so fun! Soooooo Dave!!! It's awsome! Have a good one! Love you tons. You're kids are adorable. Sweet, sweet Aubrey. I needed to hear that story of the nursing home today... Thanks for sharing it.
