Christmas Morning

We had Christmas at our house and stayed home all day. Christmas Eve day, Santa asked us to help him with a project upstairs in Nick's room, so nobody was allowed upstairs all day and all night. So, the kids had to sleep in the basement in the extra beds on sleeping bags. They slept in until 8am (Probably because it was so dark down there.) I think everyone was happy with their stuff--Mallory and Carter with their Ipods and earphones, and Nick was thrilled with his new room! They got games that they played most of the day. They also played on the new sled. I made a nice turkey dinner that night, which was a little more work than I had imagined--it always is. Stress relieving, but disappointing that night, we realized the weather was going to be too much to travel to Provo/Orem to see our families the next day, so we postponed the trip until New Year's Day. (By the way, that was very fun! It was like having two Christmas's) Enjoy the slideshow!

Nick's room is so cool. What a great gift & surprise. I love the baby Jesus scene--how precious is that. I was looking at pictures of Wyatt from last Christmas, he was just barely sitting up on his own--now he can open the garage door and head out wherever he would like. Where does the time go? Jamie is adorable. Looks like a fun Christmas.

You must have been one busy woman helping out Santa like that and still cooking turkey dinner. It looks like it was all worth it, your kids are all smiling and Nicks room is great! It looks just like a teenage boy.
