Happy Holidays!


We had a wonderful Christmas surrounded by family. My parents and my sister Megan came to our house for Christmas and my younger sister and her husband and their baby came also. We had a full house but we had so much fun. I love having family here and being able to be with them for such a long time (they were here for a week). I don't get to see my sister Megan very often because she lives down in Texas so I loved having her here and seeing her play with the kids and laughing with her. Lucy and Derrick had to leave on Monday but Tory and her family came on Sunday evening so the whole family got to be together for one night. The last time we were all together was at Lucy's wedding 2 years ago. We all had so much fun and the kids loved having their cousins here. We played lots of fun games and D pulled us behind the four wheeler in the sled and we all had bumps and bruises. We ate yummy food and visited some of the shops around here. I was sad to see everyone go, it is nice to have the house back to normal but I miss them all so much already. I am excited to see them all again soon.
We were also able to go to D's Mom's and Dad's house on Christmas Day and have breakfast with them and exchange gifts with each other. This year we had to make homemade gifts for each other and it turned out great. Cortnie and Wray gave us each a pillow case. They were perfect for each one of us! Thanks Cort! I love being able to live close to his family and that we get to see them often. We were also able to go to Mark and Shauna's for New Year's Eve and play some games their with them and Grandma and Grandpa. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and I wish you the best in this new year.

I'm so glad you got to see all of your family and be with them even if it was just for one night! I love your picture collage at the top!
