Christmas 2011

We had a great Christmas. This was our first Christmas not going home to St. George and our first Christmas here in Florida. It was so different and we missed our families...a lot... but we made the most of it and really had a wonderful Christmas. It was nice and laid back and relaxed. We told the boys they couldn't wake us up until after 6:30am. At 6:30am on the dot Mason was waking us up yelling... It's Christmas, its Christmas, wake up!


Here the boys are in their Christmas Jammies on Christmas Eve. I decided to make them this year and I love how they turned out!
For Christmas Eve dinner I made all the yummy foods my grandma makes every year. Soup, bean dip, cheese ball and crackers, veggie tray, and slush. It helped to make it feel like Christmas!
We did the Nativity. Being the only girl, I played the part of Mary. Mason and Tanner were shepherds
and Hayden of course was baby JesusOpening Jammies
Sprinkling reindeer food out on the lawn so the reindeer had something to eat while they waited for Santa inside.
Cute little Hayden on his first Christmas!
Christmas Morning trying to wake Tanner up
The look says it all!
Oh what fun!
I made these fun pillow mats for the boys to lounge on and watch movies on.

After opening presents we got ready for church. We enjoyed a nice sacrament meeting then spent the rest of the day relaxing and building LEGOS!

Drew and I made the boys this lego table for their Christmas present. They have spent many hours building lego creations here.
