Our Christmas

On Christmas Eve we had the missionaries and Jayne over for a turkey dinner. We had them join us at the block party and Jayne helped the neighbors put out the luminaries. After dinner we watched "Mr. Krueger's Christmas" and read the Christmas story from the Bible. We loved having them in our home!

Here are the kids on Christmas morning wondering, "What did Santa bring me?"


Courtney got a leather jacket, Katelyn got Just Dance 2, and Kylie got Toy Story 3 and fun slides. An unexpected gift was finding a Wii remote that had been lost for a couple weeks. We found it in the back of our closet.

Santa brought Cameron and Conner legos and a lego table.


A tradition from when I was a little girl is to always have sweet cereal on Christmas morning. This is a real treat because the rest of the year we try to eat less sweet cereal.


The kids always buy gifts for each other at the dollar store. This year the boys got these knight accessories from the girls.


We spent the Christmas evening at Grandma's house. We had a nice dinner with Bryce, Chareen, and Ray. We also got to open more presents!


Kylie loved this Littlest Pet Shop shirt from Grandma and Grandpa.


Cameron's favorite gift was this Star Wars Lego Wii game.


The girls were thrilled to get dozens of headbands and hair accessories from Grandma. She had been collecting them for weeks and the girls loved the huge variety.


What cute boys wearing the stocking caps and gloves from Grandma. Cameron got Star Wars and Conner got Toy Story.


Kylie got an art set. It will be perfect for writing all her stories!


Lloyd surprised me with an electric blanket to keep me warm in the winter. Lloyd was thrilled with his Belgian waffle maker from Mom and Jay. It was a great Christmas. We love being together and celebrating the birth of our Savior.
