Christmas Letter 2012

Merry Christmas to all and Peace on Earth is what we all hope for Christmas~ right?

We are now officially “empty nesters” after the exciting wedding of Amber and Casey this year. We love the peace and Quiet but my home is crawling with Grandchildren every day or so and we wouldn’t have it any other way! We have 14 and 2 on the way.  We LOVE our Sunday dinners with the kids and all the times we get to see them at dance classes or just a visit! I’d say we have the best life one could ask for!

We miss Amber and Casey who now live in Utah,  and Zach and Kate and their little family that are now in the great state of Washington but we know they are happy and isn’t that all that really matters these days when we have Skype and other of Gods great creations to keep us connected? We had a nice drive in the moving van to Washington and had a good time traveling together…I’m thinking when Dave retires we might want to be truck drivers…lol.

Dave and I had a fun packed summer with BYU clog camp and family reunion up at Willow flats in Idaho. It brought back good memories of all the fun we use to have with our children and Dave’s parents. It was fun to see that our children have the same “fun” we had not so long ago! The 4^th of July was really fun up there.

Dave and I went to the San Diego Zoo and Safari Land and the Southern California Clogging Convention in August and enjoyed that time we had just being together. We are still in Love after 37 years of marriage. AMAZING! We are now planning a cruise this coming year to Alaska in July. It has been on the bucket list for years!

Dave is teaching  Sunday Gospel Doctrine class and I teach the temple prep class, off and on when they have it, and I am the stake girls camp leader so we keep busy in the church still.

Well thanks for all your love through the year…we feel it as we send love your way. May you have a wonderful Merry Christmas and a Happy new year!

Love Dave and Brenda Larsen
