Christmas

We spent Christmas with my family this year. It was wonderful. A couple of my favorite moments (in order of occurrence) were:

- Driving home Christmas Eve morning and seeing the snow on the Rim. It was beautiful.

- Dustin and Mikey getting to go snowboarding

- Arriving at the house and seeing how excited Mom and Dad were

- Watching 'While You Were Sleeping' (hey...it takes place during Christmas time...)

- Spending time with Alan, Carrie, and Jordyn - Happy Birthday Jordyn!

- Christmas Eve down at Aunt Marla's house. Family, good food, the kids acting out the nativity scene, hearing the Christmas story, watching Trey try to jumprope

- Opening Christmas Eve pajamas

- Waking up Christmas morning (at 6am...not my favorite moment...) and seeing Shelby's tired face. I love the excitement and fun of Christmas morning.

- Opening presents

-Seeing Dustin with the camera - he was recording so much

- Watching Shelby. It was her first Christmas! She loved the wrapping paper and she would try to eat it. She enjoyed the presents too though.

- Watching Shelby open her Minnie Mouse doll from Alec and seeing Makellen take it away...so funny to see both of their faces.

- Mikey putting together Makellen's big wheel and the wheel falling off on the first ride

- Breakfast caserole - yum

- Family pictures

- Seeing Alan's (possible) future house

- Relaxing, watching movies, enjoying Christmas together

I love Christmas and love spending time with family! Here are a few pictures from Christmas Eve and Christmas day:
