Christmas Crazies and New Traditions!

Hauoli Makahiki Hou! and all that good stuff! So I think I went a whole month with out one single post. December was so crazy for us!! Tavo and I both celebrated our 21st birthdays all over again!j/k I passed my UH class with an A, Tavo passed his final for the police academy, Cumorah got blessed on the 14th, The ward Christmas program was a success, I was also able to play flute in the Makakilo Stake Christmas concert, my mom's Honolulu Stake Christmas Concert went well, our good friends we were fellowshipping the Tomas' got baptized on the 28th, Christmas was good on both sides of the family, Our family reunion from the 26-29th was awesome! New years was safe and now I'm finally breathing from all of that.
The girls had matching christmas dresses thanks to Aunty Shawna of course!



Talitha had the cutest reindeer pajamas thanks to Aunty Pua! The girls received so many cute and useful gifts. We went to Tavo's parents house for Christmas Eve and my parents house for Christmas Day.

This year we tried to start some new Christmas traditions. So we had a Christmas breakfast prepared by the girls and a christmas message before gift opening (we are going to rotate who give the message) and we did Christmas Olympics. It was pretty hilarious and way fun. Its the first time we started an outside athletic activities instead of the average indoor games. It was so fun! Hopefully the tradition keeps up.


For New years we went to a dance at Tavo's parents ward. It was so fun and Talitha had a blast running around. I think I like the tradition of going there instead of buying fireworks. Hopefully the girls will like that too.
