Christmas Overload!

Christmas was very good for us this year! I can't remember the last time I was as excited for Christmas as I was this year! I don't know what was so different about it, but I was pretty excited for it! We spent our break in Delta, and it was so fun! We spent the whole week just hanging out and of course we took our annual girls day trip on New Years day to Provo. It was nice to spend so much time with our families!
I am so grateful to my mom for always making everything so nice for us! She works so hard putting this together and every year it is a success. Our families getting a little bit big to be having our Christmas Eve dinner in our house, but I'm pretty sure Dad will never let us have it anywhere else! It is crazy how much our family grows every year.

Our Christmas Eve jammies!

Our typical family picture! I thought this was funny, because for once all the kids are looking, but Jake and I aren't!


I know it seems like it would be pretty lame that we all get the same jammies, but we all love it! Every once in a while we show up to something all wearing the same thing, but it's not usually a problem!



My parents and all the grand babies!


Like I said before, I can't believe how much our family grows every year! I am so grateful for my family, and I'm especially thankful to my parents for making sure we all like each other!
This was the first Christmas in such a long time that we had EVERYONE home! It is so good to finally have Jordan home.


This one's kind of random, I just thought Jet looked so cute in it!


Subi, Jace's dog, is officially part of the family! The kids love him. Jace had to make sure and take a picture with his dog in front of the tree! We don't usually let him in the house, but I guess we made an exception for Subi!


The kids were a little bit tired when we woke them up Christmas morning! Elli was surprisingly wide awake. Jet was pretty sleepy!

Elli's just like her mom! She was mostly concerned about the treats!


I guess I didn't think Elli would be way in love with her Santa gift, but I thought she'd be more into it then she was!

Jet wasn't the least bit excited about getting a wagon for Christmas! The only thing he cared about was his "Cars" band aids and toothbrush.

This is exactly what Addi wanted Santa to bring her! She wanted a Barbie house with an elevator! She has loved this Barbie house, and I have totally hated it! I am the very worst at playing Barbie's! I don't know why I despise it so much! I try very hard to play with her, I'm just not good at it!

I was so excited to give Addi this present and she loved it just as much as I hoped she would!

Addi loves having tea parties. It is just like a normal meal at our tea parties, but for some reason they're special because we're eating on tiny plates and drinking out of miniature cups! I guess whatever works!

Jet could have opened presents all day! Everywhere we went he just kept saying "pesents"! I was surprised how much he loved it!
We really did have a great Christmas. It was kind of hard to get back to reality, but it was a nice break. This will be the last year we spend Christmas at someone else's house! We are very excited that next year we'll be living in Delta so we'll be able to stay at our own house and then go visit everyone when we are done. I know that's a dumb thing to be excited about, but we're really excited to have our very own Christmas morning!
