Above pictures are from our Christmas card this year. I always like to use Christmas card season as an excuse to get creative, and this year we decided to do a photobooth style card to, in short, sum up all we’ve been up to this year. 🙂

It really has been such a beautiful year for us. We made it through our 1 year anniversary, have grown so much with such great friends around us, taken big steps in our careers,  taken the plunge into seminary (for Andy), and so much more.  When thinking of a verse to include on our Christmas cards to sum up our year, I found myself once again drawn to what we picked to print on our Wedding programs:

“The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.” Psalm 126:3

We are so grateful for a savior who has come and died, all to unite us with our loving Father. THIS, we know, is so much to be joyful about in and of itself.

Merry [late] Christmas, everyone, and a Happy [timely] New Year!

^^Some snapshots from our Christmas day. Can you believe Andy wrapped those gifts for me? And he bought me roses. What a great guy I have! Just wanted to brag a bit 😉
