Christmas Letter



Dear Friends and Family,
Another year has gone by and we wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! It’s been a busy, but fun filled year for us. The kids seem to be growing right under our noses and we get so much joy out of watching them play together.
Camilla turned three in July and is loving life. She has a wonderful imagination and loves to play pretend. She has named her dolls and almost all of her stuffed animals! She is very independent and loves to help out around the house. We love her and her zest for life!
We celebrated Hyrum’s first birthday at the end of April with family and friends. It was a wonderful backyard BBQ and we enjoyed the time we could spend with everyone. He started walking on his birthday and we haven’t been able to stop him since! He loves to run around the house with his sister. He loves making car noises and turns anything that remotely resembles a hockey stick into a hockey stick.
In March we were excited to find out we were pregnant with baby number three! We welcomed Joseph Allen into our family November 17th of this year. The kids adore him and he’s never short on hugs and kisses. He is almost one month old, weighs 9 lb 3 oz and is doing well. He has brought so much joy to our little family.

We celebrated Mike’s university graduation in June with two kids and one on the way! Aside from work, Mike has been busy working through his CASB modules after work and just wrote his last module exam in December. In his spare time he enjoys playing Hockey for the Rangers and is really quick on his feet!
Addie has been busy at her dream job of being a stay-at-home mom. She spent the year crocheting hats, baby blankets and slippers in her free time. Her days are mostly spent playing and crafting with the children.
Over the summer we took a trip out East to visit Mike’s Nana and family. We started in Halifax by checking out the tall ships, drove around PEI, and spend most of our time in New Brunswick visiting with family.
We have received so many blessings this year and are grateful for a loving Heavenly Father. As we celebrate the Christmas season it is great to be able to ponder Christ, and all he has done for us! We wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Love,
