Christmas!


Christmas morning the kids woke up around 7:30 and could hardley wait for us to get out of bed! I, myself, couldn't wait to see the looks on their faces-that is probably my most favorite part about Christmas morning-seeing the happiness and joy on their faces! Santa was pretty good to the kids-they all got everything they wanted and probably more than they needed!

Jakob with his pocket flyer! (not recommended for young children-they break easy). His favorite gifts from Santa were Guitar Hero for his DS and Sorry Sliders!

Mason was super-duper excited to finally get his very own cowboy boots! (Now he won't have to stalk his buddy Jack for his!) His favorite gift he got from Santa was the only thing he asked for and that was PBR-Bull Riding for the Wii!

Hannah's favorite gifts were the only 3 she got-she loved everything! Santa brought a very cute babydoll! She surprised both Wade and myself with the sweet way she carried her baby around and gave her hugs and kisses. It was so cute to watch her!


Her other gift from Santa was this fun, little car. It has a handle on the back and she doesn't mind one bit being pushed around, I don't think she would mind if that's what she got to do all day, she loved it. Spoiled little, stinker!

Later in the afternoon we headed over to my parents for Christmas dinner and let the cousins exchange their gifts! With 18 kids and 12 adults, it was complete chaos, but also lots of fun! Wade and I ended up staying there way to late playing my Dad's new Monopoly on the Wii-it was fun! We had a really fun and enjoyable day! The day after Christmas we packed up and headed to Panaca to visit Wade's family for a couple of days and have a yummy prime rib dinner with them. There was some snow on the ground, but it was so cold there that the snow was really hard and crunchy, but the kids didn't care-they had fun playing outside in the freezing cold with their cousins-I just observed from the window-once again, not a fan of being cold!

Afton and Hannah hanging out and chatting on Afton's new Dora couch-aren't they cute?

Uncle Neil giving Jakob, Mason, Dallin and Afton a ride in the trailor of Grandpa's lawnmower. (I'm glad he doesn't mind being cold because the kids had a blast!)

My Mason has been asking for cowboy boots like his Papa. Looks like your Mason was happy to get them. I guess I will have to go out and buy some. I am afraid that is all he will want to wear.
