November and December Fun

December is always a very full month of fun. This year was no exception. It starts with the celbration of Thanksgiving really. We decorate the tree, shortly after our Thanksgiving visitors leave. I love our tree. Each and every decoration was given to us as a gift, made by someone at my bridal shower before Clint and I got married, or made by a sweet person that we love. It just cannot help to bring feelings of love as it is strung with lights and then draped in beads and all sorts of great decorations and ribbons. This is a family activity and usually we are singing Christmas carols.


December 10th is Steven's Birthay. This year was a big one. He turned twelve years old. He was given the Aaronic priesthood on the 12th of December and is now a Deacon. I am such a proud mother. As i watched his ordanation I felt such love and happiness at the choices that he was making. Steven also had a little birthday party with his sweet friends, the Atwood Boys (Nathan, and Parker). For his birthday party they made Steven's cake and stayed up late and watched movies. They loved it.
December 17th is Timothy's Birthday. We wanted Tim to also have an enjoyable day. We tried to make it so that he would remember it as a happy enjoyable day. He got just what he wanted a Bey Blade duo pack and a BeyBlade Stadium. He loves it. For his party he had a few people over for Ice cream and cake. The only ones that could come were the McPhie Children (Susan and AJ). He loved it. I am glad because I was a bit stressed about it all.
The 19th dawned on a Sunday. This Sunday Clint and I celebrated our thirteenth Wedding Anniversary. I am so glad we have made it so far. Clint had duty on the 18th so he came home in the morning with a surprise of pretty roses and a little necklace. He was so sweet. He wanted to make sure that I knew he did not forget about it. He feels like he was making up for last year since he was deployed. Silly man. He made up just because he was there.
Things have been fun. Christmas is bought and wrapped. I can hardly wait to give it all away. Baking is getting done and people are truly calm. I just think this is such a special time of year. We rememember the savior's birth and everyone is just a little kinder and a little sweeter. So that is our December thus far. Stay tuned for after Christmas Adventure.
