Stockton's first Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Christmas was so fun this year! Even though Stockton had no idea what was going on, it was still fun to see him look at his presents.



This Christmas definitely had a different feeling. Having a baby has changed the way I look at so many things! As I held Stockton this Christmas season, I thought a lot about the Savior. I thought about how much I love Stockton, and how much Mary must have loved Jesus. I'm thankful that we have this time each year to think not about the gifts, but about the Savior. This was the first year the true meaning of Christmas really hit me. And because of that, this year was the best!!!!

Thanksgiving 2010

Rather than decide where to spend Thanksgiving this year, we chose to bite the bullet and eat two fantastic meals :)

Thursday was spent at my Mom & Dads house. It was the first year my family has been all together in almost 10 years! We played games, ate great food, and took turns holding some cute babies.

The next morning, Bryce and I split up for the day to go Black Friday shopping. Between Kohl's, Target, Babies-R-Us, & The Rack... we saved some serious coin!

Saturday, we drove to Cedar City to spend time with Bryce's family. The dinner was great, but it didn't compare to the vicious game of monopoly we played later that night. (Man the Nelson's can get competitive!)

The next morning, we woke up to a blizzard and spent about 6 hours driving home. Such a fun weekend!
