Christmas Time is Near!!!

Well I can't even begin to say how excited I am for the Holiday season this year! One it means school is at a close for a bit, second get to be with family and three McKay and I's first Christmas together!!!... Well I had all my gift ideas figured out way early this year... like in September! I had them all bought and done this last week!!! So I do not have to worry about that anymore!!! Which helps me just enjoy the rest of the season!
Just to let you all in on our activites so far we have been very busy!!! We got a cute tree put up in our apartment and still trying to get the lights up! We had the Ferguson Christmas Party on the 6th of this month! Each year we hold in on the first saturday of the December month and always hold it at the Staheli Barns in Washington City! They are always decorated so cute for the holiday season to!!! We eat lots of food first then Santa comes and gives gifts to all that aren't married! Then my grandma has always gotten pajamas for the kids to! So she pulled them out and they were so cute this year! Actually the last few years I help her buy the pajamas and all the gifts she needs for the kids... so I already knew what they looked like!!! After all the kids change into their pajamas the kids sit in a circle and exchange the gifts they bought for the name they drew! Then the adults sit in the circle and what happens is the girls buy for the girls and the boys for the boys then we go around and each take turns picking a gift... yes you can steal others that have already been unwrapped! So it was a lot of fun!!! We really enjoyed seeing family!!! Down below are come pictures of the night!!!
We are in the process of finishing up finals... ugh:(...! So pray we can do alright on them next week!!! That's the lastest info... and to our family can't wait to see you!!!
