All the Men! Oh, plus Nana!

The whole entire Duncan Family got together Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and the day after Christmas. It was so "MAGICAL".
We had so much fun; playing games, watching movies, painting fingernails, opening presents, having traditions, and most of all just having fun!
Christmas morning we all woke up, went upstairs and waited for everyone else to wake up, and went back to the basement to open presents. It was so fun to see everyone so excited to see what they got, and what Santa brought!
Mallory had a wonderful idea to make mix CD's for everyone in the family. The #1 song on all the CD's and the last song on all the CD's was the same. The first track is Kris Allen, "Live Like We're Dying", and the last track is Michael McLean, "We Will be Together Forever".
I am so thankful that this year I was able to be with my ENTIRE family for Christmas. It was so nice to get everyone together. We had so much fun, and we will have so many memories from this Christmas.
Thanks to my entire family for making this a Christmas to remember!

Whirlwind!

I know its been forever since I have last blogged! Like, we're talking months! The past few weeks have been such a whirl wind (hence, the blog title!), I took my last final today. Which is such a relief. I didnt think that I would be anymore happy for school to get over than I was this semester!

I cant believe Christmas is right around the corner! I was listening to Christmas music in my car, and Josh got in, and was like, "its too early to listen to Christmas music." Whatever! Christmas is like NEXT week!

I love this time of year! We get to refelct back on everything that has happened the past year! I am so thankful to live in such a beautiful place. I have everything I need; a loving family, a wonderful husband, my health, a house, a car, I could go on and on. But more importantly, my grandparents. Life has changed alot lately, and I am not sure how much longer I can say I still have both sets of grandparents living! I cant express my love for my family at this time, especially my mom. I cant wait for Christmas in Tooele with EVERYONE, cousins, aunt and uncle, sisters, parents, husband, maybe even dogs! :)

Sorry I dont have any pictures or anything, and this is just a ramble, but I just want my family to know how much I love them, and how thankful I am for them!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!
