Our first Christmas-2012!

Nathan and I celebrated our first christmas together this year, and it was wonderful! 
We got this cute ornament from my Grandma Forrester!

Christmas for the Hahn family came early this year, because my parents and little sister moved to Atlanta, Georgia the week before Christmas. So we all got together and had our own christmas before they left! We decorated christmas cookies, made peanut butter balls, opened presents from each other, and enjoyed being together as a family!

I got these cute little stockings from a lady at work! I love them!

A dear friend of mine sent us a new ornament to add to our tree!!

On our way to Washington for Christmas, we went down to Salt Lake City the day before we flew out  and had a fun date night together! We went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory, which was amazingly yummy! Then with super full tummies, we headed over to temple square and walked around to see all the lights! It was so beautiful and so fun to spend with each other!






We stayed at a hotel near the airport that night, then the next morning (Christmas Eve) the hotel took us to the SLC airport! The airport wasn't busy at all! We checked in, got through security and got to our gate within about 20 minutes! It was a nice and relaxing trip to Washington! 

We had such a wonderful time with the Brooksby's for Christmas! We played lots of games, did puzzles, talked, and got to play with some of Nathan's nieces, Riley and Piper! They are some of the cutest little girls! Nathan and I are lucky to be an aunt and uncle to so many cute little girls and one handsome little dude!

While we were in Washington we were able to go visit some family I have in Renton! They took us to the "Clam Lights" down by the water there! It was so fun!



We also had an open house for our wedding while we were there! It was way fun to have an excuse to wear my dress again! Nathans mom did a great job in decorating the church gym for the occasion! She made cute pumpkin carriages for the center pieces on all the tables, and also made lots of amazing desserts! Blueberry cheesecake and brownies!! yummy!! 


All in all, Nathan and I's first Christmas together was fantastic! It was great to be able to have christmas with both families; to spend time with the Hahn's before they moved and to go visit the Brooksby's! Life is great and we couldn't be happier! =)
