The Best Christmas Ever

Just to be clear, I had a great Christmas. You know how you don't appreciate things till they are gone, well, family is definitely no exception. Were my mother around, I would not have lived on Marshmallow Mateys and Swedish Fish for finals week. Were my father around, my definition of "dirty dishes" may have been a little more strict. With my sister around, I would have always had a person to hug and squeal about Michael Weatherly with.
I didn't take a whole lot of pictures at home, but these are a few of my favorites. Hope you enjoy.


Ayo's engine obsession was in overload when we took him to play at Bass Pro Shop. He couldn't stop smiling.


Alyson just had to try on her life vest for the numerous world travels that are ahead of her.



Here's just one for the sentamentalist in all of us. This is right before I left (notice dad's glistening eyes), and yes, my hair, for the time being, is red and definitely a lot nicer than in this picture.

Hello Melany,
It's good to see pictures of your family and to know that you are doing excellent! I heard PC is no longer and I'm sure you really don't care much since you are living at BYU. Kelly's kids are soooooo cute. Send the family my love.
