We had our annual progressive dinner with Grandfather and Wendy, the Maxfields, and the Nelsons. My favorite part was playing Christmas songs on the bells/chimes. Sorry about the red eyes that Todd has, I just forgot to fix them before I put this up here.
We also had the Nelson Christmas party complete with the Nativity. Todd was so excited to sing with some of my cousins.
We also made gingerbread houses again this year. I just really love making them, even though I just do the same decorations every year. One day I will learn to be more creative.
Todd worked really hard on his creation. He was trying to make a snowman and it took him longer to do that then it did for everyone else to decorate their whole house. It didn't really turn out like he wanted to. I just laugh when I look at it.
We also spent alot of time up at my family's cabin. I just really love it up there! Here we are showing off our prizes from our poppers at our fondue lunch. I clearly am thrilled about my tape measure.
My family got a dog and Todd loves to play with him.
We also had fun sledding on the road outside of the cabin. When I say we, I mean my family had fun while I took pictures.
My mom made us a wonderful breakfast on Christmas morning.
I did my best to make a pillow for Todd's mom for Christmas to occupy my now unemployed time. It was good that I had my mom close by to help me becuase I still really don't know what I am doing.
Todd celebrated his 26th birthday the day after Christmas. I just think that he is the greatest! We had a fun day together and went with my brother Tally to see Sherlock Holmes. 
And finally, my little brother Jeffrey came home from him mission in Argentina on January 2nd, just in time for him to start school on the 4th. We are so happy to have him home!
Baby update: Everything is going well with Baby Girl Glover. She is just making herself at home in my ribs which is a little uncomfortable but we are just happy that she is growing and doing well. She will be here before we know it and we couldn't be more excited!

Ok, LOVED the update! Missed making gingerbread houses with you this year :( Makes me sad! Sad you couldn't do any sledding, but probably better to let that little lady keep cooking by taking it easy :) Happy Birthday to Todd, he looks very excited for his presents. And is that a cute little wooden highchair in the background of the breakfast table picture ??? Love it! You're so great! Thanks for the updates! Missed your face
Such cute pictures! It's so great to see you guys here in UT!
Melissa! I had no idea you were due so soon. How are you feeling? I need to call you. Miss you.
