12 things from Virginia

  1. We rode on 4 airplanes and Mr. Brett was an angel through it all! He especially liked the international section of the Atlanta airport. Sean and I both marvel at our ability to fly across the country in a half a day!           IMG_4231-2012-12-31-16-11.JPG
  2. Seeing extended family is a treat!
  3. Skyping with missionaries is one of the best Christmas presents ever!IMG_4242-2012-12-31-16-11.JPG
  4. Michal and Rebecca make tons of delicious varieties of Christmas cookies which is a tradition I will be starting next year! You can never go wrong with another Christmas cookie (I think the scale will remind me of the falseness of that statement later)IMG_4247-2012-12-31-16-11.JPG
  5. Snow is so much more magical on Christmas Eve!IMG_4254-2012-12-31-16-11.JPGIMG_4258-2012-12-31-16-11.jpg
  6. Playing with cousins can be infuriating when you see your mom or dad holding another baby, but its mostly really really fun!IMG_4274-2012-12-31-16-11.JPGIMG_4324-2012-12-31-16-11.JPGIMG_4418-2012-12-31-16-11.JPG
  7. A Christmas nativity play with toddlers is unpredictable and surprisingly spiritual! Brett was a very reluctant shepherd and Kaden and Brielle made the perfect Mary and Joseph!IMG_4293-2012-12-31-16-11.jpgIMG_4297-2012-12-31-16-11.jpg
  8. Sean and Brandon playing Go Tell It On The Mountain is always a treat!IMG_4298-2012-12-31-16-11.jpg
  9. Christmas Eve jammies are a good idea!IMG_4315-2012-12-31-16-11.JPG
  10. When you travel at Christmas time on an airplane, you can’t wrap presents till you get there. Most of the presents under this tree were wrapped on Christmas Eve which was exhausting!IMG_4338-2012-12-31-16-11.jpg
  11. Charlottesville is a beautiful town! We hope to go back soon=)IMG_4454-2012-12-31-16-11.jpgIMG_4449-2012-12-31-16-11.JPGIMG_4451-2012-12-31-16-11.JPG
  12. Christmas is magical when you get to spend it with family! We are so grateful for all the wonderful family that we have, in VA, NM, NY, ID, UT, and Russia. We hope you all had a magical Christmas and that the love of our Savior carries you into this new year!
