Our First Christmas away from home was pretty good. We had about 6 inches of snow and it was colder than I have ever felt. We never saw the temp get below zero but we did see it hit 1 degree. And I thought Portland got cold in the winter. lol
We were lucky enough to have my dad here for the holiday. Although with all the snow it took some work for him to get here, he arrived on the 23rd and stayed till the 27th. Which is plenty of time for a visit to Mtn. Home. Austin had so much fun playing with his grandpa. We hosted christmas dinner at our house. It was Nick, Austin, Dad and I. And then we also had my best friend Melissa and her 2 kids, Shawn and Jaylee, and our friends Alisa and Christina over for dinner. 
We have quickly learned that you have to make your own family when you are in the Military, and I am happy to report that we have made wonderful friends here that I am sure we will keep in touch with them forever.
Now here are the christmas pictures.
It was great spending christmas with you guys!! Your part of our family and will be forever!! We love you guys!!!
