Merry Christmas

This year we made our very first Christmas card!

When we were out in California last month, we finally had a new Patterson Family picture taken at the Sacramento Temple. (Check out our fabulous photographers work! Click here!) Ally was sweet enough to take a few pictures of each individual family as well. This totally sums up what we've been up to this year. We had two goals regarding the temple attendance this year. First, we wanted to go every week. Obviously when we were sick we didn't go those weeks, but we still were in the temple over 40 times this year. The second goal was to take our own family names to the temple each time we were there. Thanks to FamilySearch, we were able to accomplish our goal. Being in the temple so often not only helped make our "spirits bright", but also for our family that we were doing temple work for. I have a feeling that we are going to keep both of those goals for next year too!
