Since everyone came for Thanksgiving we decide we should take a family picture for the Christmas card. Whitney's sister, Casey, was nice enough to bring her camera and take some for us. Bill is not a fan of family pictures and agreed as long as we only took one picture. I promised him we would if he could guarantee that everyone was looking at the camera and smiling in that one picture.
Ya...not gonna happen.
So we took a bunch and had a great time.
A couple of days before we took them, I came up with the idea to take one in Woodland's barn if the weather was cold. Cait and I went over to the barn and checked things out. Brother Woodland said that we could use their sleigh that they pull behind the horse. We got it all cleaned up and had Bill and Austin pull it out into the middle of the barn.
The night before we were going to take them, Brother Woodland called and said that he would teach one of us how to harness the horse so we could have the horse and sleigh in the picture. Ryan and Cait were willing to learn so we sent them.
It worked out perfectly...it snowed and they pulled the horse and sleigh over to the house. We all ran out and had a picture taken. It turned our wonderfully and Bill said it was his favorite family picture we have ever taken.
Christmas means so much to us...the Savior and what he has done for us. Most importantly he made it possible for us to be together forever.
Christmas means F.A.M.I.L.Y
