Holiday Breakdown

We spent Christmas Eve at my house. They left food for the reindeer, made marshmallow Christmas wreaths, and opened the traditional present, pj's from Aaron's parents.


Santa brought the girls cameras. We have pictures of light fixtures, drawings, all sorts of fun stuff to help us remember every detail.

The day after Christmas we pulled the snowmobiles out and gave the kids a ride. They enjoyed it, but didn't last very long before they'd had enough.

Aaron and I are fortunate enough to have both sets of grandparents still with us. Three of the four sets live in Idaho. The top two are Aarons grandparents, the bottom pic is of my dad parents and my mom's parents are currently in Las Vegas.

The top picture is of all of my nieces and nephews at my moms house watching a movie just before bed. The quietest you will ever see this bunch!! The bottom picture is at Aaron's house New Years Eve. The kids were still brushing their teeth when the New York ball was dropping. So they began the new year with clean teeth!!


Over all it was a lovely holiday! We are very blessed to have such great families and enjoyed the time we were able to spend with everyone!!

SO fun. Loved seeing you and catching up. And still in shock from your last comment...how are YOU? Do I need to come and remove all your kitchen knives?:)

Those are great christmas pictures the one of mom & dad (grandma&grandpa to you) with the girls is good (well except Rylie). It's hard to get a good one of dad. Looks like you had lots of fun.
