Christmas Cards

This Christmas Season, our hearts are full of the joy that comes from the good news of Jesus Christ. We know that He was born under a star that shone for all to see, and that the light of His life still shines brightly for us today. We love you and the way you give light to our lives. Merry Christmas!
The Peaden Family - 2017, David, Shantel, Lydia, Austin, & Caleb

Lydia Elise - She loves puppies, unicorns, and Kindergarten. She seems to big as she goes to ride the bus every day, and she's the greatest big sister around. Her favorite book is "Not Quite Narwhal". 

Austin Scott - He loves Caleb and can most often be found laying across Caleb's lap. He likes to sing songs and has the best sense of humor. His favorite book is "How to Train your Train." 

Caleb Samuel - Wins best third baby award hands down. He's super happy and loves when we sing "Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam." His favorite book is Lydia reading him "A Unicorn named Sparkle".

David and Shantel - David is a great dad and loves playing with his kids. This year he was selected as the UACPA Rising Star of all young accountants in Utah. He's super handsome and Shantel is really lucky to have him. (And because she's writing this, she can put whatever she wants). He's currently reading: The Jack Ryan Series and the newest John Grisham book. Shantel likes to buy things on Amazon and is trying to be a better mom every day, because she really really really loves her kids. She read the Book of Mormon in the 30 days leading up to her 30th birthday and it changed her life for the better. She's currently reading: The latest Jonquil Brother's book by Sarah M Eden, For Love of Honor. 

Love, The Peadens

Lydia helped me address our Christmas cards this year. She wrote "The Peaden Family" on all the envelopes and it was darling. I can hardly believe how big she's getting. I love how involved she wants to be in things, and I'm glad when we can find things like this that she can do. (And it really was very helpful to me!) 

I love the way our Christmas Cards turned out. David and I felt like it was important to share our testimony on the card, and the few tiny things that we were able to write about each member of our family give a perfect little snapshot of our lives right now (maybe not perfect snapshot, but I really love the things we chose to include). 

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
