Merry Christmas

It is hard to believe that another year has gone by and the Christmas season is upon us. Our family is always amazed at how much we cram into a year; certainly 2010 was one of the most eventful years in our family’s history. As we reflect on all of the events, accomplishments, struggles and triumphs of the year it is amazing to recall all of the blessings that are ours! Our thoughts turn to the Savior and his atonement for us…we are the beneficiaries of his eternal love and hope for each of us.

We wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and a warm, prosperous new year.
