OUR 1ST CHRISTMAS.............

Our 1st Christmas was amazing! Where do I even start.......This year we decided to stay in Utah and spend the Holidays with Joey's family since Joey came to Oregon with my family last year! Even though we missed my family alot, we still had so much fun! Christmas Eve, we made tons of food and learned how to make really really good cinnamon rolls from Joey's Mom! Later that night, the whole Bradfield Family went over to Grandma and Grandpas house and had lots of food, a Christmas program, and a gift exchange! It was so much fun being with the whole family and all spending Christmas Eve together! It was also really special because during the Christmas program, the Spirit was so strong. We read the Christmas story from the scriptures and people sang and it was so special. I've never done anything like that before! I loved being all together! Christmas morning we called my parents and opened our presents from them over the phone so we could celebrate together. My parents spoiled us! We got so many fun presents from them and we are so grateful! It was good to hear them open theirs and share that together. After that we went upstairs with Joey's family and opened presents with them! It was so much fun! They spoiled us as well...we got so many fun things that we're excited about. We also loved watching them open the presents we got them. Later that morning we went to Joey's Aunts house and had a huge breakfast. It was fun learning Joey's families traditions and seeing how they celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. It was such a special day, and we are so grateful for our families and this Gospel and each other...
Get ready...here is TONS of pictures :)
I was so happy about "Our 1st Christmas" ornament!
I looked long and hard for the perfect one!
