Christmas Day

Christmas was wonderful... no really, best Christmas ever. We slept at my parent's house so we could get up with the kids and do the whole Christmas morning thing. Heather's kids didn't wake everyone up til like 8 or 8:30. I remember as a kid getting impatient at 6 in the morning!

Perry opened her first gift which was all she wanted. Little plastic animals. She was set for the day and would have been happy with just that. Chase and Peyt ripped through all their gifts in about 10 minutes and no one had any idea what they got. None of us adults had to move at all since they brought everyone their gifts after they were done. It was crazy Christmas chaos which is the best way to do it. We were all super blessed with lots of gifts and had lots of fun things to play with.

Left pic: Heather was wrapping presents at her house and Peyt got worried that she didn't have anything for mom and dad. She ran in the pantry, told Heather not to look, wrapped her gifts and brought them to AZ. Jeff got olives, Heather got pineapple, and Peyton was very proud she got her parents a gift. It was really cute.



Every year we/my parents make a big breakfast Christmas morning. Fresh squeezed orange juice, ham, hash browns, pastries, donuts, eggs... it's delicious!

When we were little my dad always had to shower before we could open presents. Torture to little kids. -Grandpa doesn't make the grandkids wait...






Christmas night we went to celebrate with Coby's family. I didn't take a single picture. We had dinner, exchanged gifts, his little sister Bree called (she is on her mission in California)... it was SO good to talk to her. It's always a party with Coby's family.
