December Sum Up!

To say December was crazy would be an understatement! We were pretty much booked every weekend with something not to mention Christmas. But they were all wonderful things and it was so nice to be here close to be part of it all! 

Here we are at the temple for my sister Emma's Wedding! Hooray!

All us girls-sisters are wonderful don't you think?! 

All my Siblings! Minus one- my brother Michael. We missed him. 

 In the middle of December we celebrated the wedding of my younger sister Emma! We are so happy for her! Here is me and Emma and my sister Liz at the reception.

 Chase and baby Alvin. Alvin had a hard day poor kid.
