Christmas is always a super stressful time for me.
I never really like it.
That's just me being honest......
I have some goals for next year to like it better though!
Like I really have set goals already of how I can make it better.
BUT......having my kids here with me, makes me the happiest person!
And I got to have everyone here except Dillon...and he has the BEST excuse!
I wouldn't want him anywhere but the Philippines right now, so
having all of the rest of my family here for Christmas was my best present EVER!
Chris asked me what I wanted for Christmas, and I told him:
I just want my family to be together.
I got it.
We spent a lot of time together and it made my heart so happy.
I love the spirit of the Christmas season.
I love my Savior. I love the gift of His life.
I'm thankful that Jesus Christ was born on this earth
and that we can celebrate His life, especially at Christmas,
and that it makes people happy and makes people
want to be nice and help other people.
That makes me happy and makes the time of year better!!
I loved the #LightTheWorld campaign that the church did this year.
It truly helped me to feel the spirit more.
We tried to serve more. We helped more people by giving more.
That's what its supposed to be about anyway, right?
in our Christmas Sunday Best...don't they look so cute?
Our CHRISTMAS EVE nativity scene is getting a little slim
looks like we need a few more grandkids to help out!
But the spirit felt when we read the scriptures together
is always the same no matter how many people are there.
I love this cute family and nativity!!
CHRISTMAS MORNING....
is always a crazy scene but we love it!!
I wouldn't have it any other way and I was so happy
to have the little ones at our house this year to wake up to
look at this fun morning!
Have you ever seen cuter Christmas buns?
There's a happy Christmas!!
A couple days before Christmas we made these fun Gingerbread houses
as a family. We had so much fun...I love this tradition!!
Jess & Cam WON the prize for the biggest mansion I think!
