Christmas

We decided to carry on Justin's family tradition by buying each other a Christmas ornament every year. The ornament would represent something memorable that happened during the year.

My ornament to Justin was two precious moments ice skating together, since that is one of our favorite activities to do together, and we spent quite a few dates ice skating and getting to know one another better.
Justin gave me an ornament representing our wedding along with the date we were sealed. It was really sweet that he personalized it. We both loved our ornaments, and buying and exchanging them was one of our Christmas highlights. We needed somewhere to put our new ornaments, but we thought that getting a real Christmas tree is a lot of work and buying one cost a lot of money, so we settled for this dollar store tree. It was perfect! Whatever ornaments couldn't fit on the tree, sat around the tree. We spent Thanksgiving with the Butterfields and Christmas with the Wagners. We are so blessed to be apart of two wonderful families!
