Merry {belated} Christmas!

Hello again. Have you missed me? We haven't seen each other in a while due to the fact that David and I have been incredibly busy over the past few weeks. David finished up his final semester of college and graduated with his Masters of Accounting. We both finished up our jobs, packed up all of our earthly possessions and moved to Lehi. We actually haven't spent much time at our new apartment due to spending the holidays with family but it is slowly coming together. 

I've had a bit of bloggers block - but I figured that I should blog about Christmas before we really get started into this new year. So here we go...

Our Christmas was wonderful. We started out with my family in Morgan. We stayed there for Monday through Saturday and had all sorts of fun getting ready for Christmas. 

On Christmas Eve my family went to see "Tangled" at the movie theater. I absolutely LOVED it. It was so cute. I don't consider myself a movie owner (as in - I don't purchase many movies for my personal collection because I don't generally like to re-watch movies) but this is definitely one that I would like to own. It's darling.

Here is the whole gang (minus Melissa who was at work and David who was taking the picture).

My beautiful sister Jenna and I. Don't judge me and my red eyes. I definitely cried during the movie.

Here we are! We had such a great time.

We are a little crazy. Also, this is a demonstration of my strange tendency to stand on things so I am taller than everyone else around me. I think it stems from my subconscious self-consciousness of being the oldest but shortest of my whole family. 

 

This is our delicious Christmas Eve Pizza. Yummm...

On Christmas Eve we pulled all the mattresses in by the Christmas Tree and slept there.

This is the only picture that we got from Christmas Morning. This is one of the presents that David gave to me. Isn't it wrapped so pretty? 

This is what Christmas looks like at the Peaden home. With over 20 people in the family the presents tend to pile up. It's a beautiful sight to behold! 

David and I before the great un-wrapping began.

Overall our Christmas was wonderful. We were so blessed to be able to spend so much time with our families and to be able to relax and enjoy the break. We were also grateful to be able to celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. There are so many reminders of his love for us during this season - it's amazing and makes me even more grateful for the blessings that I have.

Thanks for reading and... Merry {belated} Christmas!
