Happy Holidays

It is beginning to look at lot like Christmas here in Cache Valley! We absolutely love this time of year! It means that school is almost out, ski season has officially begun, and the holidays are quickly approaching, which means making memories with family and friends is just around the corner. The end of this semester is particularly special because Ty will officially graduate from Utah State University in 2 weeks--very exciting! He is graduating in Finance & Economics and will begin applying for Law School in January.

We put up our first Christmas Tree this past week in our little apartment and it looks great. Tyler's parents donated some decorative pillows to us which became our make-shift tree skirt, and they look very cute. Tyler, as I found out a few mornings ago, enjoys leaving the tree lights on all night long. And as I sit and type this, Tyler is putting lights (that were generously donated to us by my dad) up in our windows to add to the spirit of the season.



Ty and I have spent many Christmas holidays together in the years that we have known each other (including the one in 6th grade when I gave him a super cheesy present that I am still embarrassed about). We are looking forward to this one, however, as it is our first Christmas as a married couple. As I was looking through pictures and videos a few months ago for our wedding video, I came across all of the videos that Tyler sent to me from his mission in the Baltic States. There were 2 that I found particularly enjoyable. He filmed them right before his second Christmas there and both of us laugh really hard when we watch them. I hope you enjoy.

We are so grateful for the memories we have and for the ones that are yet to come. We have been so blessed in our lives and are so grateful for the people in our lives that have made us who we are and given us what we have. Life is so amazing and we only look forward to what it has in store for us next.
Happy Holidays! love, cam & ty
