Merry Christmas!






Merry Christmas everyone! What a crazy time of year! This month has been non-stop but it has been so much fun! Christmas was fun with Ava this year because she loved opening presents and loved all of the excitement. We went up to North Ogden to spend Christmas with my family this year. So before we went up we had our own little early Christmas with Chad's family. It was so much fun to open food sacks and watch Ava open up all of her presents. Santa was really good to us! Then on Christmas Eve we went home to my parents' house. It was just what we hoped it would be. Kristy and Jimmy came up from Arizona this year. It was really good to see them again! Becky and her family all came up and my brothers and their families came too. Needless to say it was constant chaos! But it was SO much fun!! The boys went hunting and the girls had a hair day, thanks to Kristy. We played a lot of golf and rock band on the wii until all hours of the night. We built gingerbread houses (Kristy and I won for the cutest house), we played rummy non-stop and we laughed the entire weekend. It felt good to be home. The best part was having my little family with the rest of my family. I know this sounds cheesey, but that is what Christmas is all about and we really felt that this year. We are blessed to have good families that we love and remind us what's important in this life.
