Christmas, the Wedding and New Years all flew by once school was out. My sister Hayley, her sweet baby belly and her husband Kyle came up on Thursday Dec. 19 and I took my Endowments out at the temple on that Friday. Holy cow. It was such an amazing experience! I loved every second of it. I feel so blessed to have this gospel and be able to go through the temple. I loved having my family there with me and being able to see Dillon throughout it as well. Dillon's family also all came and I was very happy to have them there! So incredible.
On Saturday we had a double shower plus family Christmas party day. First we had a Baby shower for Hayley then a Bridal Shower for me and that night our Thompson family Christmas party. It was a GREAT day but it was actually quite a relief to have everything over. Haha
On Christmas Eve Dillon's family had their Christmas party and we also opened a few presents. Dillon had been keeping a surprise from me for what seems like FOREVER and I had no idea what it was and it was driving me crazy so when he finally gave it to me I was so excited! Its the Best Christmas present! He made me a BEAUTIFUL cedar chest because he had heard me say one time that I really wanted one. I feel so lucky that he is so incredibly talented! Our house is going to look so perfect because he can make anything and everything I want and it will be so amazing! He's seriously a stud. That's all there is to it.
Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday! Even though it was so crazy because the wedding was so close, it was still an amazing day! Me and Dill decided to spend our last Christmas mornings with our own families. It was way fun but I'm excited for me and Dillon's first Christmas together!
The day after Christmas we went right back to the wedding craziness. Everything worked out perfectly though. I am so blessed to have such an amazing family, especially my mom, who helped me plan and fix everything! It was such an incredible day and there were so many people that made it that way! Thank you!
A blog of our wedding day is coming soon :)
