Merry Christmas!

Christmas was a lot of fun this year! Chris's parents drove down to spend it with us and we had a lot of fun! Katie understood Christmas a little bit better this year, but still didn't quite get it. At our ward party, Katie was so excited to see Santa, but when her turn came her 2 foot bubble kicked in and she wouldn't do it. Poor thing. I know she wanted too. We had a great Christmas. My gift to myself was printing out all of my scrapbook pages that I had printed out and put them in albums. I just have to scrapbook the last 2 months of this year, and I will be current again. Yeah!  Santa brought me some scentsy candles & hair clips.  Chris's mom bought me a diffuser, too diffuse essential oils in the house.  I was so excited when I opened that!  Chris got a pant hangers, a belt, shirt & tie, hair trimming kit and a new air compressor. We both got money from his parents, which will be spent very soon at Costco stocking up on supplies! Ali got some clothes and a few toys along with Katie. Katie also got a bike from Santa, a makeup set, dress up clothes, shoes, books and stuffed animals. Needless to say, we were very blessed and had a great Christmas. Thanks mom and dad! Here are a few pictures to enjoy!

The attempt

The fruits of my labor!

We figured this would make trimming the mustache much easier than scissors!

Mom always comments on our cheese slicer when she comes...so we got her one! And the amazing Pampered Chef Pitcher!

Ali's quiet presence during the gift opening

So excited about her "new dress". She had to wear it while opening her other gifts!

Her new bike from Santa! She will figure it out one day!

Loving her make-up kit from Grandma! Grandma's always get the greatest gifts!
