Brandon's First Blog Entry

This is Brandon's First ever blog entry! How exciting! Well, I'm finishing up our Wedding Video that didn't work at the reception. I've changed some and made it better anyway. I decided to post our dinner video for everyone as a sneak preview before our Wedding Video. This one is way more fun! Hope you enjoy and expect more blogs coming from me!

It's a Snow Day

I can't remember the last time it snowed this much right before Christmas. It makes everything feel so Christmasy. Brandon and I had a fun weekend road tripping up to Rexburg for Kristin and Blaine's wedding. It was ONE degree! I don't think I have ever big that cold in my life. The sealing was so nice and I am happy that Kristin found her happily ever after.

I love the First Presidency Christmas devotional. I loved hearing their personal Christmas memories, especially President Eyring's story about Samuel the Lamanite. I love being reminded of the simple and meaningful ways to celebrate this special season and I love that I get to do them with Brandon.

December 6th is...

ST. NICHOLAS DAY!

And that means...

Having a yummy crepe breakfast with Sarah and Emily.

Finding presents in our shoes.

Watching Miracle on 34th Street, making yummy fudge, loving this festive German holiday...
