The end of November and beginning of December were full of choir performances and both sets of grandparents came out to visit! Abby had so much fun with them as you can clearly see! Here she is helping Grandpa Mark work out one morning.
This is even better...a video of Abby doing sit-ups with Grandpa!Pictures of Sunday! Abby, Grandma Karen & Jen

Grandma & Grandpa Wilcox brought Abby a tiny nativity and she loves to play with it. (Kind of hurts to step on though when she leaves the pieces out!)
Abby stayed with our friend Natalie while the adults went to Jen's ASU Christmas concert.
We also added a new arrival to our extended family! My beautiful sister, Tiffany had a little baby boy named Caleb Joseph Shakespeare on December 15th! He is so cute and clearly adored by his family! Abby and I will travel to Washington on January 7th to see him (thanks Grandma Karen!)
The last day of seminary was December 17th and that evening most of the students came over to our home for a party. As you can see, we were quite cozy!
We also went to the park nearby and they played football, ultimate frisbee and hide and go seek. Abby loved running around and the kids loved to run after her!
The next morning Matt and I took the kids to do baptisms for the dead at the temple.
The Sunday before Christmas was a busy one for me with the Sacrament Program for our Tempe Ward. The program went very well and Abby looked very beautiful--I managed to get her hair up into an up-do which lasted about an hour!
The best one is Abby at the organ--eat your heart out Grandpa Mark!
Finally, a picture of the 3 of us in our backyard! Notice the grass!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
