Don't forget the reason for the season!

The White Stocking


It wasn’t that anyone had really been forgotten,no children had been slighted or made unhappyand no adult had been left unremembered.The presents had all been distributed and all the stockings were beautifully filled,all that is except one;It was the stocking intended for the child of Bethlehem.Of all the people belonging at that Christmas gathering,only He had been forgotten.Only He had been left out of the festivities.This didn’t seem quite right,inasmuch as it was His birthday that was being celebrated.
This year, hang this little white stockingin a special place in your home.On Christmas Eve, as you reflect upon the Savior,write on a piece of papera gift for Christ to be placed in the stocking.It will remain in the stocking until next year’s Christmas Eve,When you can reach into the stockingand read the paper from the year before,written from your heart to the Savior.
We hope that you will enjoy beginning thisHoliday tradition. Your gift could include:personal goals you wish to achieve,or relationships you wish to improve,ways you will be of service to others in the coming year.Whatever you choose, may this gift to the Saviorbring you closer to Him as you walk in His lightAnd follow in His footsteps.



Merry Christmas and May we all remember Jesus Tomorrow and the day after that and the year after that! I miss you all and our hearts are with you this CHRISTmas Season!!

Thankgiving

Thanksgiving

The week of thanksgiving was a awesome week! My parents and all of my brothers got to come to see us! We had Thanksgiving at Brandon and Krystals house and it was awesome! Krystal and I split all the food in the middle! We were really looking forward to doing it ourselfs! I have never cooked more than pies for Thanksgiving and it was a lot of fun! My mom for the first time did not have to do anything and I liked it! For once she got to sit back and relax and enjoy! Thankgiving really make you thankful for family and for being able to spend time with them!


Black Friday!!!!

Most People worst part about Thanksgiving but when it comes to my family it is one thing we all do and love to do! Well everyone but Tyler that is! We all got up and were shopping by 5am!! I know crazy! But we got alot done and were home by 1o or so! Then we all went back to bed for a couple hours! I guess there is something about tons of people and really really good deals!

Hot Tube?


We all decided to go hot tubing at our apartment and all of the sudden it started bubbling! Brandon added Soap to our hot tube and it was more like a giant tube and less like a hot tube! The bubbles were so high we couldn't sit down or the bubbles would cover us!! It was a lot of fun!
RoadRunner Hockey
Brandon and Krystal took all of us to a hockey game for a Christmas gift and it was so much fun! I have never been to a hockey game before! Dalin and Brandon were screaming the whole time for a fight to start and we all got into it! They didn't win but it was so much fun!!!
