MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

I said I wasn't going to do a Christmas card this year. Then when it got down to it I felt kinda bad not sending one out. So I did a few, mostly to family. I'm sorry if you feel like you should have received one and didn't. I really only did a few. But here it is, including the letter attached. We hope all of you have a fantastic holiday season!


It’s hard to believe that the Holidays are here again!! This year has gone by so quickly!! As we look back, we can see that we have been very blessed here in Indianapolis. Student family life is busy, but has been very peaceful and wonderful. Our family continues to grow and create many lasting memories together.
Dave is in his third year of dental school and is now able to work with real patients in the clinic. He enjoys interacting with his patients and continues to learn new things every day. Most of all, he loves being a husband and dad and is grateful that he can now be home more often in the evenings.
Nicole enjoys being a mom with all that title entails. She loves helping in the classrooms of all three of her boys. She continues to serve in the primary presidency which takes up a good amount of her time also. She feels very blessed to be able to stay at home with her kids.
Austin and Taylor finished a great 1st grade year and are now half way through their 2nd grade year. They are learning a lot and love both reading and math. The biggest event for them this year was turning eight. They were baptized and confirmed by their dad on September 5th. We were blessed to have many family members make the trip to Indianapolis to share in this special day. When asked how it felt to be baptized Austin answered “wet.” Hopefully that isn’t all they felt. Their current interests are eels, tornados, motorcycles, and race cars.
Caden started all day kindergarten this year and has the same teacher that his big brothers had. He loves it. He is very smart and is doing very well in school. He enjoys playing with his friends and on the computer. He was recently placed into an advanced reading group and loves that he is able to read books. He is very sweet and loves to help any time he can.
Haley is the newest addition to our family. She was born on August 5th, sharing a birthday with her Grandma Felt. She is such a precious little girl who we have all fallen in love with. She loves to be cuddled, play peek-a-boo, and chew on anything she can. She especially has a soft spot for her dad who feels the same about her.
We are very grateful to have had a healthy and peaceful year this year. It is nice this time of year to spend a little extra time together and remember all of our family and friends. We are grateful for all of you and hope you have a very happy holiday season.
Love,
Dave, Nicole, Austin, Taylor, Caden, and Haley Felt
