"The Christmas season gives us encouragement to remember Him and His infinite generosity. Remembering His generosity will help us feel and respond to the inspiration that there is someone who needs our help, and it will let us see the hand of God reaching to us when He sends someone to succor us, as He so often does. There is joy in giving and in receiving the generosity that God inspires, especially at Christmas." -Henry B. Eyring
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Cute! Merry Christmas!
that was fun, huh?! :) heavenly father was so good to us!
WOW!!! what did brother get ME!?? i want a wii too!!! LOL... thanks for the pix. looks like tons of fun! =)
1) I am happy to report that the home front did a lot of remembering Christ's birth. too.
2) At home, Evan was super excited for Christmas just like Erwin Ad. With 3 days to go, he kept reminding all of us in count-down fashion, and kept telling us he was excited about Christmas (in Evan's stoic way, but we could tell he was excited).
3) The first thing i noticed in the pix were the Christmas jammies. Ally and Rach wore their Christmas jammies, too. I wondered if you guys wore yours and the pix are confimation. (Dad)
lol. rach, you should ask him. :p
dad: man, i tell you, those boys are SO similar. its crazy how often erwin reminds us of evan!!
and we noticed that rach and ally were in their christmas jammies too! :p
christmas is good. but...not the the same when: the whole family is not together, we dont do pixies, no ishiharas(arashiros), no christmas parade, no carolling, no santa. dont get me wrong im grateful for it all but it was a lot like mission christmas that were quaint and charming at best. i love my family.
it should be evan reminds you of me! not the other way around. hes turning out to be a funny guy tho. you gotta admit, when you reflect on evans little quirks it makes you chuckle(in your own private way, unless youre with everyone together and its extrememly funny then we can all laugh hahahaha)
ishiharas!!! LOL. classic.
*sigh* you gotta love those christmas traditions. :)
no. YOU remind us of EVAN. not the other way around. ;)
yay for christmas traditions!! and christmas jammies! and new christmas traditions! :)
this one was special for me, especially because it was our first as a couple. but what a fun one it was. of course, there was quite a lot of thinking about home and how we wished we could be there, but we made do with what we could and it was such a fulfilling holiday :)
i think i'll remember too that that's the day we shared our good news :)
:)
