Christmas

There is something so magical about Christmas morning. I love it.

Pillow pets were the big gift from Santa this year. They have been a hit. The boys take them with them all over the house.

The boys were excited to go down. They have to wait while I light candles and turn on Christmas music. They slept in until 8:00. That was wonderful!

The boys all got harmonicas this year. It has been fun to see them try to play them.

Robes were another hit of the year.

They all got a set of foam athletic equipment to play in the house. Hunter got golf (his favorite).

Palmer got lacrosse. Lincoln got croquette. They are great for family night activities.

The family gift was Toss Across.

McKay's first Christmas was pretty great. He loved the wrapping paper.

He got a Jack in the Box, which the boys loved as much as he did.

Breakfast of casserole, sausage, and homemade doughnuts.

We had forgotten the boys presents. We got some great stuff this year. I didn't get a picture of Lincoln's as he was too busy playing with his Christmas loot. He gave us the cutest apron made of paper towels that you tear off once it is dirty and there is one underneath. Genius. He made it a school.

Palmer made this Christmas tree at school. It has his initials on it. We loved it.

Later on Christmas we went to Josh's mom's house. She always goes all out to make it special.

McKay got the cutest car toy to play with (that the older boys also love).

The boys all got bubble sticks from their cousins (which have turned into light sabers).

The also got guns that have been so fun.

We all got matching Utah State pajamas.

We had such a wonderful Christmas. When we came home on Christmas night we had a little program about the Savior. I sure love Christmas and absolutely loved this Christmas.
