25. Favorite family Christmas tradition? Since Dad passed away Christmas just hasn't been the same. Our family has changed so much since it happend and the traditions are all different. I think my favorite was just dad making it so special. Our last christmas with him was one that i will never forget! He completely spoiled us kids. He really loved us. And christmas eve and Christmas day we just hung out played games and ate food like we weren't going to ever eat again after the holidays. I am excited to start our own traditions.

Wedding Pictures








Leah, our photographer, posted some of our pictures on her blog so I thought I would post them for you to see! She did such a great job! I can't wait to see the rest of the pictures! This was such a great day. I love to look at the pictures and relive the day!

So Missy told me I needed to make a post so she can teach me exactly how to blog. This is a whole new thing to me! These are the only pictures that I have right now of OUR BIG DAY. I stole two of them from Missy. I love my friends. I really do have great friends. I was so glad to have them their to support us. The last picture is of me and Taylor's Cousins Gavin and Ryker! They are the cutest little boys. I love them. They always make me smile! I will post again when I get some more pictures on this computer.
