December 23

On December 23rd Grandpa and Laura flew out to spend Christmas with us. (Grandma came a week earlier) We picked them up from the airport, went to dinner and then took them to the Washington DC temple to see the lights. It was quite an adventure. But once we were able to finally get there it was so nice to be able to see all the beautiful lights. We were able to see a really nice Christmas program put on by the Sister missionaries and see all kinds of nativities from around the world.

One of my favorite nativities.

We were so lucky to have everyone here for Christmas.

I feel blessed to have these people in my life.

THE ZOO

Aunt Susan came up to spend the weekend with us and help us celebrate Noah's first birthday. We spent the morning at the Washington DC zoo. Noah didn't feel very well so we cut the day short and headed home.

There are days I wish I could lock them in a cage.
