This year for Christmas we headed to Salt Lake to spend Christmas with
Grandma/pa Hyde, Uncle Chris, Aunt Katey and Cousin Kiley!
And boy were the kids excited!
Here they are having some fun with dad outside playing frisbee!
We were expecting to be playing in the snow
but were just as happy with the frisbee!
The kids were entertained decorating cookies for
Santa on Christms Eve while us girls got dinner ready!
Here is our cousin Kiley! The kids had so much fun playing with her!
We got into our new Christmas Jammies and were ready for Santa to come!
Our little family on Christmas Eve!
Next year the pic will have a new addition!
Gma and Gpa got the kids a special present to sleep with on Christmas Eve!
Pillow Pets! They were so excited {besides Halie and her attitude!}
Uncle Chris and Micah tracked Santa all day!
And had to have one last look before bed! He was getting close!
Jeff keeping Halie happy... she is a daddy's girl!
Trying to get a Christmas Eve shot... but...
Halie was not in the picture taking mood... surprise...
She wanted to bite instead!
So we wrote our letters to Santa! Micah wanted to write his own!
He made sure the fire place was ready.... and....
The kids got the cookies out for Santa...
Then grandma read "The night before Christmas" to the kids!
We did our traditional stocking march and went off to bed!
And at some point that night SANTA ARRIVED!
{and boy did he spoil the kids this year!}
Christmas morning!
Baby Hoodin' pile! (*see Hoodin post)
Micah's loot!
Thank you Santa for being so smart to deliver the Trampoline to our house!
My favorite gift! Micah made me a Christmas ABC book! He told he he has been working on it since like the first day of school!
We gave the kids a trip to Disneyland.
Halie's presents! {Favorite gifts: Barbie Mustang, Newborn baby, Doll house}
Baby Hoodin' even got spoiled!
Micah couldn't look up from his new game for the picture!
{Favotie Gifts: Bike, DS Games, Lincoln Logs and Trampoline}
We played... stayed in our pajamas all day...visited Great Gpa {Big Guy}... some of us took naps... some played games... Jeff and Chris put together Micah's ridiculous 2 hour marble track... and we had a fun visiting and enjoying watching the kids play with their toys!
And by the end of the day we were exhausted!
A day late came our White Christmas Wishes:
And the kids built this huge snowman with the help of some friends...
And then came in and played more games!
Thanks for a wonderful Christmas Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Chris, Aunt Katey and Kiley!
WE HAD A BLAST!
