The true meaning of Christmas
This holiday season I was feeling a little overwhelmed, and well a little bit cranky. On top of all the Christmas craziness I just got called to the primary presidency (like a week ago!). Well, the other morning I just happened to pick up the december Ensign and read just about the whole thing before I could put it down. The stories brought tears to my eyes. The overall theme was giving to others and being selfless. It really made me stop and think about the "true meaning" of Christmas. Christ gave us the ultimate gift of service. I got excited to serve those children in the primary! It also made me stop and think that I need to spend more time with my family. So I decided to spend the day doing fun things with my kids, and having a day where we could just relax and feel the Christmas spirit. We listened to Christmas music and decorated gingerbread houses, all the while staying in our pj's. I hope you all kind find the time to serve others as well as spend time with your families, for this is the true meaning of Christmas. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

What a cute gingerbread house!
oh and i love Alexis' boa!
So true! Cute gingerbread houses. Every year I think I need to buy one of those and I haven't yet!
You will love your new calling. I used to be in the primary presidency and loved every minute of it. You're so cute with kids - they are lucky to have you. Love the gingerbread house too. It's obvious Alexis has inherited your creativity.
so this is totally off of the subject of your blog, but Kaden and I watch baby signing time like literally 5-6 times a day. Is your little girl on some of the signing times? There is a cute little girl that looks just like yours!
Hey, this is Ashley Steel. I am happy to see you have a blog - even though you don't update it much. It is always fun to see more about you guys. Your kids are so cute, I miss seeing little Tommy in nursery. We need to have Alexis come play at our house soon.
and I love the boa too, I am glad to see you puts it to use!
