Drumroll please...I present to you the FIRST EVER Palmer Christmas card! Well, the picture we're using for our Christmas card :-)
Yeah, I know. I'm terrible; but there's no time like the present, right? And, as holiday traditions go, at least in Utah, tonight we made the trek to downtown Salt Lake to see the lights at Temple Square.
And this is probably the first time I've made sure pictures were taken to document this trip. Makin progress :-) {E} was excited to go see the lights, and {C} spent the whole time on Brandon's shoulders, but she loved it too :-) It was an especially great event for Brandon and I because it was great to show {E} where Mommy and Daddy got married, and to help her understand how special the temple is to us. It reminds me of the first time Brandon and I went to the Salt Lake Temple together:
We did something pretty awesome. We didn't just get married. We made a promise to each other and to our Heavenly Father that we would work our entire lives to make our marriage last forever. Because we loved, and still love, each other THAT much. Because we loved our future children that much, and we wanted to keep them FOREVER. Still do, in fact :-) And that covenant made these moments that much MORE AWESOME.
The day {E} was born...
...and the day {C} was born.
What a beautiful reminder the temple and the Christmas season is to us of how much Heavenly Father loves each of His children, to send His Son to earth to give His life for us. Because of His gift, I can keep these weirdos forever, and nothing in the world could make me any happier.
