Christmas 2011

This was by far the craziest Christmas I have ever had! I felt like a bouncy ball bouncing around from place to place. We started the day off with Christmas morning at our place.

 Looks like Santa enjoyed the cookies we made for him!

 Dish Set from Santa

 I made this bag for Ethan and the Tic Tac Toe game.

 These are the ornaments Granny B brought back from her trip to Africa. Hand carved from Makalani Palm nut, pretty cool!

 I love my little munchkins!

  Then we went to my parents around 10am to open presents and talk to Heather, who was calling from  South Salt Lake. She is stuck there until she gets her Visa to go to Brazil.

 My Dad & Cody

 Ethan really wanted a gutiar for Christmas, he wants to be just the Primary Choirster, Brother Shannon. All the kids adore him, he plays the guitar during Singing Time, so he is pretty cool!

 I think Cody was hoping for a guitar too! Laura wrapped this present, it was pretty funny because he was totally  thrown off when he saw that it was a baseball bat.

 My little princess opening up her presents.
We rushed home to change for church. I really wanted to get a picture of us all dressed up but we didn't have time for that.

  This was right after church. She pulled her chair up to her kitchen and  started talking on the phone. It was the cutest thing because she didn't seem to care earlier. After we changed we headed over to the Meadors for Christmas dinner.

 We sang Happy Birthday to Hannah who turned 3 years old!

 Time to open presents!

 Sienna sat on her present as she waited her turn.

Regardless of how crazy the day was, I love our families and feel very blessed  to have place or places to go on Christmas.
