This season..

We love this time of year. It makes us so happy-- the lights, decorations, family time together, delicious food, church programs, nativities, baking, hot cocoa, Christmas cards and all the other wonderful things that come with the Christmas season.

This year has been a bittersweet one, in May we welcomed our beautiful baby Elijah with a rather fast and natural childbirth. Now, seven months later, we are saying goodbye to Matt's grandma Dane. How grateful we are to know that we will see her again, one day. We are so blessed to know the truth, that our Heavenly Father sent Jesus to die for us so that we can all be together again one day. We are constantly reminded of how lucky we are- especially during the Christmas season, of how much our Heavenly Father and Jesus love us.

We must say thank you to our amazing family and friends, we love you all and wish you all a very Merry Christmas! (and a Happy 2009!)
