We're Alive!

Just thought I'd use that title just in case you all thought otherwise.  We are back from our White Christmas vacation!  We all had a great time and now I am trying to catch up with life, once again.  Here is what I've done so far:  read a book.  It was a great book though!  It's called Matched by Ally Condie and I read it in three days.  Its a great novel, kind of like Hunger Games-ish, but not so violent.  Actually, the opposite of violent.  It was so interesting to me I think because the Society they live in reminds me a lot of Satan's plan.  What would it be like if we had no choices to make?  What if someone made all the choices for us?  This book made me really look at my life and me grateful for the agency that Heavenly Father has given us.  The writer is LDS but its not an LDS novel.  I will say it is MUCH better than Twilight or Hunger Games, to me at least.  Much more poetic and thought-provoking.  Anyways, back to cute baby pictures from Christmas:

 My A-dorable little niece Gwen, who would never get in trouble in my house because her little voice is the cutest thing in the universe.  Little lisp and everything, I just love her!

 Here are all the other equally as awesome nieces and nephews, Raleigh (as you all know), Kaitlyn, Luke, Gwen, and baby Claire (the teeniest, tiniest little thing!).  Trenton not pictured, lol, he was the baby Jesus understudy I guess, haha.

 Christmas morning sunrise!  So beautiful!

 Raleigh giving Trenty a present on Christmas morning, love!
