Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas 2013!

 Halloween was so uneventful for us this year! Every year I say that next year we will do something cute and then we never do. But we never have any parties or anything to go to and so I have no motivation to think of a cute costume and put forth any effort! But I do have fun decorating the house. Here's the Halloween decor this year!

I did hardly anything for Thanksgiving. Just our traditional gratitude leaves. We had Thanksgiving in Utah. That's my favorite because my grandma's cooking is SO GOOD. She taught me some of her secrets this year! I really am lucky because my grandma is amazing and teaches me so much!

This year was our first Christmas ALONE. We did Christmas Eve at the Cromwell's house for a few hours and it was lovely. Then we went home and did our own Christmas Eve and went to bed! Christmas day we slept in! It was glorious! We ate breakfast and opened gifts at our own pace. Later in the day George and Vauna and Jed stopped by. It was nice! I loved it!

 We saw the Forgotten Carols again this year, loved it like always!!

George and Vauna played Santa and Mrs. Claus at our ward party. They are the cutest Claus couple ever!

I have to show these because I was so proud of them. I learned how to use the band saw for the first time! It was a little scary, and a lot fun!

We went to great grandpa Harding's Christmas party! Love going to that! Good food, good company, good time!

We visited Great grandpa Powell to give her her gift from grandma and grandpa Hathaway. She is so fun to visit I adore her.

  

Back to our house, jumping around...

And a few pictures from Christmas day

This wasn't Christmas day, but our Christmas package from my family! Not everything but here are a few pictures,

Holidays are so much fun! I hope next year's holidays get a better tribute than this years!
