The Holidays


The holidays were so fun this year but extremely busy! We've come to the conclusion that Dylan makes everything fun. He of course was spoiled rotten. It really was out of control...but I use the excuse that you only have one first Christmas right?! He really would have been satisfied with just the wrapping paper. Between Santa, Mom and Dad, and his grandparents and aunts and uncles he came out smelling like a rose. Lots of toys, clothes, and books. His favorite toys of course make lots of noise and I'm not sure where to put all of them. Have a mentioned I have the best husband in the world. He was such a trooper and waited in line with me on Black Friday at ROBERTS CRAFT (yes there was about one other man there) so I could get a Cricut for scrapbooking for Christmas.....But he surprised me with a right hand diamond ring. I love it! It complements my wedding ring beautifully. He's the best!



This is Christmas night. Dylan was so tuckered out by the end of the day. We woke up early to do Christmas at our house. Then we battled the snow storm up to the Davis' and then spent the late afternoon/evening at the Cutlers. It was a great day and we were all spoiled.


My ring!

A few days before Christmas we did the annual Thanksgiving Point Night with the Cutler Fam. The kids had fun decorating cookies for Santa. The BYU bowl game was on, and then we ended the night with the Lights at Thanksgiving Point. Dylan hated the flash on the camera so every time we took a pic on the trolley he had a sad face.

We spent New Years with Jeff's friends at a cabin up in Bear Lake. The view was awesome!


All in all we had a great month. It was fun having both of our families here. Lots of hanging out, food, and games. Mark and Natalie got engaged. Brynlee was blessed. We finally got Dylan into the GI Specialist. She promised me that she would have him eating within 2 yrs. 2008 will go down in history as the hardest year of our lives so far. We were very blessed through our trials and are so grateful for Dylan to be in our family. We gladly welcome 2009!!!
