I know that we are not the best at calling or emailing our loved ones to fill them in on our lives, so this blog is to let you in on our lives. So Shaun and I have been very busy with our school work. We are SOO excited for the Christmas break, even though we will not be home on the mainland for Christmas! I know there are 24 hours a day, but it honestly does not feel enough.
Time has flown by, the Fall semester is coming to an end, the Thanksgiving season has passed and the Christmas season has begun, and Shaun and I have been married for around 7 months already. Wow, time has flown by. This Christmas is very unique for both Shaun and I - for it's my first Christmas away from home, away from my family, and our first Christmas married and in a warm place! We were sad at first, but now we see it as an opportunity to create The Nelson family holiday traditions (I don't know what they will be yet, but there will be some ;) ). I guess Hawaii will be our new home sweet home. SO Decorations are a must so I created a Christmas Countdown poster and put it on our door. I also got a gold "Merry Christmas" wreath and wreath holder as a welcomer to our home. Oh yeah, I got the stockings! Stockings are one of THE MOST IMPORTANT things about Christmas! It's a start. My mom called me yesterday and said she is going to send us some Christmas decorations and since we can't be home for Christmas dinner, she is sending a Sam's Gift Card to buy the ingredients and is going teach me how to make a Christmas dinner via phone! That made my day! Thanks Mom you are really the greatest!!
Other than that, Shaun and I have started making some good married couple friends! Which makes me VERY HAPPY! Especially when we didn't have any for months! Yesterday was great because for one, Michelle and Ashleigh both offered us rides to church! Where is all this love coming from?! Haha, well Michelle and Jeremiah are so kind and gave us a ride to church. I can't wait to hangout with them over break and do some hiking! Ashleigh and her husband stopped by and we are planning to go ice-skating and to dinner on Friday! We are very excited!! Something to look forward to! They are such a fun couple! Then Ashlin and Mika came over for dinner! What a great evening! So we are planning to hangout for the Christmas break!
Hopefully Shaun and I will be able to visit the Big Island and go to the temple, it's been way too long! Also, we might go to Mulaki (I don't if I said that right) to stay with my mom's friend. That would be great!
Tis the season for change friends and family! We love you!

Oh! Merry Christmas you two! I hope you have a great one in Hawaii. Most people GO there to spend Christmas and you guys are "stuck" there for Christmas. You guys are so lucky!
aww that's fun your making friends! We enjoy doing that but typically once we become friends either they move or we move...then we get to start all over again, not fun!
