The Spirit of Christmas

This made me cry. During this time of year, we often get so wrapped up in the commercial and material part of Christmas. Even though that's part of the fun, we tend to forget that Christmas is the celebration of the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Of course it's fun to decorate and give and get presents and think about Santa. But Jesus is the reason for the season. "Wise men still seek him." We should be as the wise men, and always seek him. I hope that during this season, we can all remember Jesus and that he is the true meaning of Christmas, and may we always have the Spirit of Christmas.

Jaxson is Here!

Our little nephew has arrived!!! Jaxson Evan Thomas was born on December 8 at 12:38 AM. 8 lbs 6 oz and 19 3/4 inches long! Cameron and I are so excited and proud to be an aunt and uncle and thrilled that Ammon has and is a cousin! We are so happy for Brooke and Justin! Congratulations little Thomas Family, we love you!

Isn't he cute?!

Christmas Pictures!

The other day I got Ammon all dressed up so I could take some Christmas photos and choose one for our card this year. I have to say, my baby makes a pretty adorable Santa. This first picture is my absolute favorite, I can't get over how cute he is here!

He was pretty tired and fussy, but I managed to get some great pictures.

Thomas Family Christmas Tree, 2010

We also had our first snow of the season on Saturday. Ammon wasn't sure what to think of the snow, he just stared at it. He loved touching it and seeing something new for the first time. When we moved to Virginia, we were sad at the possibility of not getting very much snow during the winter(boy was that a shock last year when we got over 2 feet right before Christmas!) but we are so glad that we get some decent snowfall so that Ammon can experience that.

Love this one :)

Six Years!

On December 4th, Cameron and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary of being together. What an amazing six years it's been! Full of ups and downs and so much happiness. We've been married for two of those years and had our amazing little boy. I am so lucky to be with such a wonderful man, who makes me so happy, who am so happy to walk through life with.
