Ain't Nothing Better Than Christmas!

Christmas is, by far, my favorite holiday and time of year!!! Nothing beats spending quality time with the family, giving to those you love, and remember the importance of the Savior in our lives! I really feel like we have been so blessed to have both of our families so close, and I only wish there could be more time to spend with them.

This year was also exciting because it was Brody's first Christmas!!!! He was very spoiled, especially by his grandparents! It was a lot of fun to have him around this year to be a part of all of our Christmas traditions!

Brody's standing!!!!! (well, almost!)


Me and Brody in front of Mom and Dad's Christmas tree!


Brody tried on his Christmas pajamas that we opened Christmas Eve.
What a cutie!!

Kevin played ball for the white team on Boxing Day! The final game was between Kevin's (and Jeff's) team, and Shawn (and Jimmy's) team! It was very intense. Kevin's team was up by three with 10 seconds left, when Kevin was fouled (but it wasn't called). Shawn got the ball and made a three point shot to tie the game. Of coarse, Shawn's team then ended up beating Kevin's by one point. Emotions were quite high after the game, and us wives got to listen to our husbands do a play-by-play on why their team should have won. All the boys joked around with Darren (my brother-in-law), who was reffing, that he was no longer in anyone's good books.

Grant and Connie recently also got a pool/hot tub put in their house (not outdoors), so Kevin and I were excited to take Brody out for his first time swimming!! (Don't worry! The pool was at the same temperature that his bath water is - just barely warm!)
He seemed to really like it! Unfortunately, he has outgrown his swim trunks now, and I don't have one that fits him, so we'll have to go shopping sometime.
