Peterson Family Looking Forward to 2013

Peterson Family Looking Forward to 2013
In moments when the light of resolution dims and when the heart grows faint, we can take comfort from His promise: “Be not weary in well-doing. Out of small things proceedeth that which is great. Behold, the Lord requireth the heart and a willing mind." Matt. 6:19–21

Christmas 2011 - MEP Style

This year was an "on" Peterson Christmas.  We missed Ashley and her family - she is ready to deliver her #6 and was not able to travel.  (Mark and I will go up in early January, me to be a grandmother and Mark to deliver an address to School of Business at BYU).  My family has always had fun Christmas traditions.  One of which is our white elephant gift exchange.  We introduced the idea to my husband's family years ago when we moved here to AZ and they too have embraced it as one of their traditions.  It is really fun to do with the kids.  We also Christmas carol to friends and neighbors.  I have always gotten the matching jammies for our girls and the grandchildren.  They really love dressing alike on Christmas Eve.  The excitement of seeing their own personalized stockings and anticipating Christmas morning tickled us.
