WONDERFUL HOLIDAY SEASON!

It's been awhile since I blogged because so much happened in the past month. We had such a wonderful Christmas. We enjoyed a delicious dinner, caroling, and Nativity reinactment at Grandma and Grandpa Moon's house on Christmas Eve. Santa came through with the Barbie and the Diamond Castle Set so we have a very happy 4-year old and Preslyn got some very beautiful dresses thanks to the last-going-out-of-business-day-everything-80%-off-sale-at-Mervyns! Santa does find amazing deals!

We headed up to Utah Christmas Day and hit snow in SLC. We made it to our destination on the wings of many prayers (we came so close to getting smashed in the back and the front, but luckily our new van remains dent-free!). Heavenly Father continued to watch out for us when Aaron decided to go off a twenty foot drop off and land face first in a tree on our first run down the mountain! We had a great time visiting with the Harris family and enjoying the holiday spirit at the Moon Family Christmas party. It was exciting to see both my sisters round with babies in their bellies and we enjoyed the beautiful lights at Temple Square. Since we returned, it's been a challenge to get unpacked from our trip and cleaned up from the Christmas morning festivities that were left behind, but hopefully we will be back to our organized selves by February! We may be the only house on the block with a large nativity set glowing in the front yard in May, but hey, at least we enjoyed the holidays!

We enjoyed your video you sent us! Your girls are sure growing up. So fun. What no picture of Aaron after his "accident?" Glad you guys had a great Christmas. And yes, the snow and weather was CRAZY! It has almost completely melted now. So nuts! Anyway, hope you have a great year.
