Christmas Bells are Ringing!!

I love this time year, even with all the craziness of it all, it's so fun to spend time with family. It's great to talk about the true meaning of Christmas with my own kids and hope that they actually see beyond the presents and think about what is most important in this world...Family and Friends!

I love taking pictures to mark a moment in time, a moment to remember because it goes by so fast. It seems like yesterday when I was a kid spending time with my family at home and my grandparents and now, I'm the Mom, it's almost unreal. I love my kids, I love my husband, I love all of my family and friends and the support they are in my life. I love being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and having full knowledge of the gospel and why we are here on this earth. I love the principles the Church teaches and the opportunity I have to try to be a better person every day, that even on days that I screw things up, that I'm not a great Mom, wife, sister or friend that I can be forgiven and realize that tomorrow is another day to work on being the best I can be. I love the examples I have around me. My friends who are so willing to help me out and serve me in so many ways, my parents and in-laws who love me even when I'm crabby and they are always willing to help me out. And the time they spend with my kids. What an opportunity that my kids have to get to know both sets of grandparents, we are truely blessed to live by both of them. I'm thankful for my husband who is always so good to me, again, even when I'm crabby and impatient, who is a great example to his kids and always there for me and my best friend. So, with that being said, thank you to all of you for being part of my life. I love you.
