It's here! It's finally here! I LOVE Christmas! You can sense the change in the air as the world brightens up for this special season. Lights glimmer on houses that once were dark, trees sparkle in homes, kids are eager with excitement, and people are just a little bit more kind.
Tyler and I set up our tree for FHE right after Thanksgiving. This was the first year I decided to add burlap to our tree and I love it. :) I've had the fireplace mantle decorated for a while and Tyler was a good sport to help me with that too. We sure enjoyed being able to hang our stockings by the chimney with care this year!
I also made the burlap wreathe that's on our door this year. I had a craft day with my twin sister Ashley, and cousin, Kambria. We had such a blast making them and it was so easy!
Tyler and I have much we want to accomplish this season such as seeing the temple square lights, making sugar cookies, and wrapping up the Christmas shopping, but we are trying hard to remember the true meaning of Christmas. How thankful I am for our Savior, Jesus Christ, and his love for all mankind. I am so grateful for this time of year where we can all take a moment to remember him and the special gift he gave to us.
As the stress, craziness, and excitement of the season begin to swarm around, please remember to take a moment to ponder what Christmas is truly about. Share kindness, share the gift. Merry Christmas!
Sorry, poor lighting!
Our little tree!
