Our first christmas:) along with other holiday festivities!

What an amazing past few weeks it has been! First of all, my brother, sister in law, and nephew flew out for christmas break! I'm so glad they were able to come out. I missed them SO much! Unfortunately they leave to go back to nebraska today but I'm thankful for the time I got to spend with them and baby sitting hudson! He is walking now and knows who I am! It was so fun chasing him around!
Second, we got together with the paz  family (my sister in laws family) and made gingerbread houses! I wish I had a picture of austin and mine's because it failed.... miserably....
 Then it was time for our first christmas together!!!!!:) and it was so perfect! We spent christmas eve sleeping at my mom's house with jeff and crystal, we played games and talked til we finally went to bed. And then it was up early (hudson doesnt sleep in very long) and we opened gifts and paul and claire stopped by and we all had breakfast! I loved spending time with my family! Then it was out to west jordan to visit austin's dad and then up to bountiful to visit his mom! When we finally made it back to our apartment in provo it was time for our own christmas! I walk in and to my surprise austin had cleaned everything! He's the best:) not to mention we both spoiled each other with presents and love! It was the best christmas ever!!
For new years, we went over to paul and claire's apartment along with paul's friends and we ate pizza and had dessert and played an interesting game called qwelf! I suggest everyone play it at least once.... its great! We also played a game called pass the pigs.... wow it was intense! We then watched the ball drop and looked at the fireworks going off outside and then called it a night!
All in all.... It's been an amazing past month! :) and I'm not looking forward to school starting in 2 days....
