Happy December!

Hello. I am here again randomly with a few fun photos. Things are going well for us since we last posted. We enjoyed Thanksgiving at the Wakefield's, decorated the house for Christmas and are excited to see our Peterson family soon :) We had our neighbors over for a scone night and that was a lot of fun. Today we hosted playgroup and it was enjoyable having lots of kids around and I had adult conversation :) while there was snow on the ground outside. Owen doesn't take naps anymore so I don't get much free time, but that is ok. Owen and Lydia both like to listen to primary songs on You Tube during the day and Owen usually gets to watch one movie... and yes...we have to limit how many times a week he watches Cars or we (Nate and I) might go crazy. I have been working a lot on family history at night and Nate has been doing a great job as a Project Manager at work. Lydia is as sweet as ever, even though she has 3 teeth coming in...and she seems to want to skip the crawling stage and go right to walking. Life is good for us in the Peterson household and we are grateful for all our many blessings. We hope things are going well for each of you.

Hello, It is my turn (Nate) to post on our blog. We have recently been having a lot of fun as a family. We were able to go down to St. George and visit my older Sister Amy and her family. We were able to help them lay some cement in their back yard. It was a lot of hard work but it was fun to spend time with the family. My mom and Dad
were able to join us down there so it was good to
spend some time with them.

We were also able to go to the St. George temple visitors temple, we made the mistake of watching the families are forever movie where the grandpa dies and the family has a hard time dealing with it. Whoops, We couldn't help but think about our kids Grandpa who is sick right now. Owen tried to lighten the mood by saying "Temple, Temple!!" the whole time.

Here are some pictures of our fun time.
