I don't have a whole lot to say except for everyone under the age of 13 at our house is WAY excited about Christmas. Everyone over the age of 13 is either a scrouge (trent) or overwhelmed at the amount of presents that need to be wrapped (me). We are trying to be frugal and told the kids that they would get three presents each. That has proven a little hard to do seeing as how the three things Jayden asked for are way more expensive than what Chloe or Annabelle wants. Coleman ever the diplomat wanted to know if the three presents he asked for could be a lot of money. Let me preface this by saying we had told the kids that they would be getting three presents because thats how many Jesus got and we are celebrating his birthday and all. Coleman was wondering if his three presents could be worth a lot of money because after all Jesus got GOLD! (and two other presents) They will be pleasantly surprised to find that they each have a few more than three presents and Trent will be pleasantly surprised that we stayed within our Christmas budget!
Our pink camera has finally come out of the hiding spot so we finally have halloween pictures. I will post them another day seeing as how we have plenty of other pictures to post! Jake, Trent's youngest brother got married on Friday and it was fun to go to the temple and hear the advice that they were given. I started thinking that I don't remember one thing that was said to us during our sealing! (AHH! I know!) It was a good time to reflect on how to strengthen our marriage and to remind us of the plan that Heavenly Father has for all of us!
