Christmas is approaching! I finished ALL my shopping this week, despite our setbacks (mostly due to the fact that I did almost all my shopping online- LOVE it!). The boys sang at the Ward Christmas Party (see video below). Ben was a shepherd and Bradley was one of three wise men. James came home on Saturday and put up our Christmas lights...so we are ready! This is our first Christmas in our new home. We never bothered with exterior lights on our rentals, but it seemed like a must this being our first home and our first Christmas celebrated in it. They are simple, but pretty. We figure we'll buy a little more each year and pretty soon our house will be very festive.

Benjamin kept telling James to be careful on the ladder. My favorite part was when Ben offered to help James decorate the top story because he was really good at walking on roofs.

My attempt at getting a picture for the Christmas card. This was the best one. I'll post the rest, but my Sis is going to try to work some magic on Photo Shop to get it just right!

And here are my darling nieces, Sofi and Gabby! They are coming up the day after Christmas, and I can't wait to see them!

Boys Sing at the Ward Christmas Party

They have also been asked to sing at a benefit concert for the local food bank. They'll be singing two duets next Saturday night- will video for sure!!
