Christmas 2009

We had a wonderful Christmas with just our little family. This was Brynley's first Christmas so the kids wanted to make it extra special. Christmas Eve we had a wonderful night reading the Christmas story out of the scriptures. We love to sing Christmas carols and talk about why we celebrate Christmas. We also let the kids open up one gift which is always jammies and we got Santa's plate of treats ready. Every year we make reindeer food (oatmeal and glitter) and sprinkle it on the lawn, so the reindeer can find our house.


Christmas morning the kids woke up around 7:00 and we let them open their stockings before they ran to look what was under the tree. We had a great time opening presents, there were a lot of surprises for them.


Travis and I made a big breakfast of waffles with strawberries and whipped cream with sausage (Jake's favorite) on the side. We played all morning with new toys and games before heading off to see "Alvin and the Chipmunks, the Squeakual" with the Howes Family. Bryn had a wonderful first Christmas and loved playing with all her new toys.

Baylee wrote the letter to Santa, it is pretty funny!


Jake got a skateboard.

Baylee, Brynley and Sydney got a huge Barbie dream house to share.

Baylee and Syd got an Easy Bake Oven from Grandma and Grandpa Moss.

Baylee got a docking station for her iPod, she was so excited!

Bryn woke up after we had opened everything, she was still a little foggy here.
