So Christmas is over and so is Christmas Eve and some other Holidays that I haven't blogged about, but I'm only human and can only do so much! Kids take lots of time and so do husbands!! Ha ha I'm only hafe kidding about that!!! ;) Anyways I also just got my pictures unloaded onto this VERY SLOW new laptop we bought, ya it's way freakin slow at loading pictures for some reason, so anyhow ...
Christmas Eve! Oh what a wonderful day! We had so much fun we had dinner at my mom and dad's and it was oh so good! And then we had our Nativity after and then my parents did something new they bore thier testomines to us, so amazing! I love my parents, so spiritual. But then we all opened our new pajammies!! And it was so fun! The house was FULL of kids and love and laughter! I love it! So here are some picures of that, ( this may be a little bit long! Gonna get ya all caught up!)
My Mom got all us kids these boxes from Lehi Mills and it's all this breakfast stuff!
Here are the girls in there Jammies, I really don't like to match them but I just couldn't pass these up! They are so dang cute, and on the back of the robe it says "Yee Haw" So fun!!
Here we are opening our new jammies! This is one of my most favorite things! Look forward to it every year!! Who doesn't like new jammies? I wear my year round, I get really cold and they are very warm!!!
Here are all the grandkids, and soon to be grandkids, with our moose as the baby, hey we improvised! It's nice to have enough kids that we older kids just sit and watch it! Love it! They were so funny!!
My moms tree, so pretty!! And this is presents before Santa and the rest of the Aunts and Uncles added to it! It was great!
So that was christmas eve, and christmas day, WOW! Santa sure loves us or we have been EXTRA GOOD this year!!!;) We first went to my Mom and Dads house, we had to be there at 7:30 so we woke the girls up, they were asleep in our beds, no surprise here, well first having kids makes Christmas so much more fun, cause you get to "set stuff up" and do all that fun stuff, Brandon and I didn't go to bed, well fall asleep til like 3, we were both so excited! It was really funny, but we got the girls up looked at our stuff Santa left us and packed into the car and drove to my mom's where we had doughnuts and juice and waited for everyone to get there. And then all the kids line up, youngest to oldest and run into the room to see what Santa left! It was awesome! We had so much fun, the girls are at that stage where it's all exciting and they are starting to understand it all, they really get it now, Santa gives us lots of fun toys and clothes!! Well as they call him, Ho Ho. But we opened up our presents there and then headed back to our house, it was snowing and so perfect! I loved it! That was the only traveling we had to do that day! So nice! Then we opened up ALL of our gifts and the girls knew exactaly what to do, they got new pillows and pillow cases from santa so they sat on them and just started opening up! It was so funny, I loved it! I could do it every day it was so fun!! But Brandon and I also had some gifts under the tree as well, I so couldn't wait for him to open his!! He was really shocked at the things I got him, a new Carhartt Coat his been wanting forever, new cowboys boots that I LOVE! They are so HOT!! And some new clothes( I always worry when I buy him clothes so this year I got him some Cowboys clothes and he likes them alot, they aren't from Old Navy!!! Cowboys are funny that way!!) And then he had some great gifts for me as well, some new hoodies, so super cute sandles, and the perfum I've been wanting and it SMELLS AMAZING!!! WOW! And then last but not least, everything had been opened and Brandon was all what's that in the cornor?? Under those blankets?? And I looked and was like oh he has some more things hidden and so I go and take off the stuff and it's a big box with the sweetest note on it for his "beautiful and wonderful wife who he is so lucky picked him and gets to spend eternity with!" I'm of course bawling like a baby cause I know what it is and I didn't think I was getting one but I opened it up and it was my Kitchen Aid!!! Oh man it was so amazing! I've wanted one for so long and I finally got one!! Oh let the caking and making begin! I'm so inspired now to cook!!! But it was great cause just as we got all the paper picked up his Dad and Brothers and Sister had come over, and brought a TON of gifts! Oh man it was crazy!!! But so much fun!!! I loved it and so did the girls, they got these super cute Build a Bears I love them! I have them up on shelves in there room cause Hadley was taking off the clothes and I didn't want to lose anything! But then Brandons Dad just spoiled the girls so much! They got all kinds of things from him, bags and bags of things. And then we had a lunch with them and they girls took naps, they were so tired Hadley went a put herself to bed! And we started to watch a movie and they left in the middle of it and we tried to take a nap but couldn't so we just hung out til the girl got up and then picked up a bit more and started Dinner cause my parents were coming over to see what we got and have dinner with us! So I made some Chocolate Covered Strawberris to celebrate! They were yummo!! And that night we made a fire and we all fell asleep in the living room by it. It was so much fun! I love our families! They are the greatest!! I hope you all had as much fun as we did! And may the season always be in your hearts!!
Oh yes I almost forgot, the best part of the whole day! We stayed in our jammies all day! LOVE CHRISTMAS!! Love all of you, even if I don't know ya, say hi, I'm sure I've looked at your blog a time or two! Blogs are great! Merry Christmas to all and to all the count down begins again, 364 more days til I get to post about it again!!!
