A Southern Christmas...

Christmas in the South was wonderful. 

We spent our days surrounded by a ton of family and friends... 

This year was my first Christmas away from my family which was a little hard
 but I did my best to make the most of it.
The whole Howell side came to Asheville and it was an absolute treat. 

2 Grandparents, 10 Aunts and Uncles, and 16 Grandchildren all in one house.

 (Madness) (Not everyone is pictured!) 

It was a season full of excitement...
We... opened presents (I got a new camera)

- Ate tons of good food -

- Went to the Columbia, SC Temple for Savannah (She leaves for Brasil in May)-

 - Shot guns basically every day - 

- Visited District 12 -

- Had a huge bonfire with some good friends for New Years -

- And finished off our trip at Lake Travis in Texas -

I think it is safe to say that our Holiday Season was a great success
