Christmas Season

Christmas came and went so fast this year.  We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas morning in Fairview.  We had a great candle light dinner and very spiritual family home evening.  I love Christmas Eve with my family.  It brings the spirit in and the true meaning of Christmas.  All of us got to open our Christmas pjs from Grandma and Grandpa.  Brynnlee was thrilled with Minnie Mouse jammies and Lexie was thirlled with her Monster High jammies.

Christmas morning is always fun.  Lexie came and woke us up at 4 AM.  We made her go back to sleep until 7 ish.  THe girls were so excited to open presents.  Lexie would open one present and be ready to move to the next.  Brynnlee opened her first present and was done.  It was a minnie mouse purse she could color.  All she wanted to do was color the purse.  It took some persuading to get her to open more presents.

Both girls got scooters from Santa

Lexie received an easy bake oven and rock tumbler.

Brynnlee's minnie mouse purse.

Boston just chilled the whole morning not caring what was going on.  His sister were helpful and opened all of his presents.

The Christmas Village.  This is one of the girls favorite traditions around Christmas.  They love to look at all the cute houses and see all the lights.

They may have tipped this horse over!  Oops!

We checked out the lights by Lee's.  The girls loved chasing the ducks into the stream. 

Brynnlee wanted her picture taken by every tree with lights.

Such cute kids!

Love these fat cheeks!

We went to Temple Square with my family.  Poor Lexie had Strep throat (on meds though)  and Brynnlee and Boston had bronculatitis (sp?)  But they were all great and enjoyed being out and seeing the lights.

Best parents ever

Ryan Christmas Party.  Lexie didn't get to see Santa much this season, but she asked for art supplies.  Yeah pretty easy to please.  Her favorite present was a ream of white copy paper from Brynnlee.

Brynnlee still doesn't like Santa.  She did get close enough to grab her present.

Boston slept through his first encounter with Santa.  I am sure next year will be a different story.
