Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas! Santa was good to us, and Deacon loved him! How fun is Christmas when your kid is old enough to open presents?!

Deacon got spoiled rotten from Grandpa Nelson



Lovin' Santa!



But not to excited about the tow truck Santa brought him

Santa brought a "big boy" chair for Deacon and a mini laptop (now maybe he'll leave mine alone...)

Helping cousin Beckam unwrap gifts

Can't wait until next year when Evan will be here! (Yes, that's the official name of baby #2!!)

She’s back!!

It’s official! Maria is back home! She arrived yesterday afternoon and I’m so glad she’s back! I think I can speak for the entire family when I say we are very proud of you. Going back to school is no easy task, especially all the way across the country where you don’t know anyone! I know you miss your friends already, but we missed you more and want you home! Plus you escaped right before another frigid Minnesota winter (not that Utah is any better!) Welcome Home!!
