This holiday season was the best one for our family... EVER. It was exactly what we needed and more then we could have ever hoped for. Quality time home with eachother. Focusing on our family motto this year which has been that "if it doesnt support and strengthen our FAMILY, our EDUCATION, our FAITH or the INDIVIDUALS in our family, then it doesn't matter." While that litte list might seem simple, we had a jam-packed December full of ward parties, dance events, and time with really wonderful friends. WONDERFUL!
With homeschool we took a 'break' from the formal classroom from Thanksgiving to New Years and it was so fun. We played games everyday, we read A LOT of books and the kids each made a homemade gift for another member of the family (hopefully that turns into a yearly tradition because it was adorable.) This year Doug and I wanted to thank all our friends and family... for the incredible support, love and encouragement that you've all given us this past year.... we've been blessed and we've grown and our family is stronger and safer and happier this year then last. Our new years resolution is to keep the momenum going! We want to all be learning and growing and strengthening eachother in 2014. Happy New Year!
Love to all,
Joanna
