"The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear"



Even though we had talked about marriage, and knew that it was right, we weren't ready for everyone else to know. We talked about the possibility of getting married in May, so that we could spend the summer together. We even told our families that we wanted to get married sometime around May 10th. But we swore them to secrecy. Our families were thrilled! We spent the holiday season going back and forth between our family parties. Who would complain about two Thanksgivings though? The holidays brought many fun parties and activities. One in particular was a ginger bread house party at Chase and Becca's. Out of five couples, we received the award for the best ginger bread house! Another party we went to was an ugly sweater party. Marie got out the big guns with a sweater donated by Griffin and Katie. She won the contest that evening too. That night was filled with Christmas carols, so naturally we used Marie's "12 days of Christmas" sweater as a prop to remember the verses. Other fun during the holidays included trips to Kaysville, Jazz games, multiple family parties for both sides, Temple lights (where Marie got slammed by an avalanche off of the Tabernacle), making and delivering cookies and other fun adventures.
