When Sam and I got married we received a few quilts from our grandmas. This winter we have used them all and they have been wonderful. I love the way they look on our bed, and I have been very excited to show them off. My grandma has been making me blankets since day one, and I love it! I have SO many quilts from her that it's not even funny. When I got my ceder chest for my 16th birthday my grandma had me come over and get the quilt that I chose when I was little for my wedding quilt. I was told to put it in my ceder chest until I got married, and then I could use it. Well then I got engaged, and grandma decided I needed a quilt that fit Sam and I. We then went shopping for material, and it was super fun. After we got married we ended up with 3 new quilts for our bed. They are all so beautiful and we are so lucky to have such wonderful grandmothers who care about us. They are both very talented women and I have uploaded some pictures so you who read my blog can see for yourself. I

I have been so terrible at blogging. Well to start we officially had our first Thanksgiving and Christmas together. It's been great. We have been so blessed to have been able to do so many things over the holiday season. We have spent much time with family and have had the opportunity to go to the festival of trees,the lights at temple square and many Christmas parties.  We also had an opportunity to sit on Santa Claus' lap and tell him what we wanted for Christmas, it was great!  Christmas day may have been the most exciting day for us aside from our wedding day. We couldn't sleep and watched multiple movies throughout the night before Christmas. We ended up waking up at the crack of dawn..wait before the crack of dawn. Yay us! We had such a great Christmas, and Santa was even able to come. We hope that next year Christmas will be even better! Sam and I even had an opportunity this holiday season to make our first big purchase together. We got a new car. We are very happy
