Lots have happened in the last couple months which I have failed to blog about. I feel disconnected from the social world lately. Nursing school combined with two boys and never ending piles of laundry consume Eric and I. But, when we both finished our finals and passed, it felt so awesome to know we are one step closer to being done. So, anyway since Halloween (when I last blogged), my brother left on his mission to Spokane Washington, we went to see the Temple lights up in Mesa with my family, Aiden played a shepherd in his preschool nativity play, the boys visited Santa and of course lots of pictures were taken. The boys are growing up so fast especially Mr. Austin. He is rolling over, trying to sit up from a laying down position, drooling non-stop, and laughing out loud. He has the biggest temper for such a small little boy and he absolutley loves his big brother to death. Here are some pictures to show what we have been up to...

I am so grateful for this time of year and am thankful to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and for the knowledge I have of Jesus Christ and his atonement for us. Let us all keep in our hearts the true meaning of Christmas.
Merry Christmas to All!
