Grandma has been making all the grandkids jammies for the last 6 or 7 years!! The kids can't wait to open them on Christmas Eve and I can't tell you how much they LOVE them. I usually end up prying them off Addie, after at least 4 days of continual wearing, while explaining again why we need to wash jammies.

A successful Christmas morning...I love experiencing the kids excitment and joy. It truly is magical. Of, course that excitiment means rising at unsightly hours!! So unsightly that we enjoyed toys, breakfast, dressed in our sunday duds and make it to 9am church in Bountiful to Grandma speak in church.

What kid wouldn't love Christmas when it means non-stop presents from the moment you get up until late that evening. Such is the case for our kiddos..who get to enjoy presents at both Grandparents house on Christmas as well. It makes for a long day but we enjoy getting see all our family. Til' Next Year!!!

Pre-Christmas Festivities

This year we checked out the Odgen Christmas Village for the first time...We hauled the Reynolds Clan along with us for our adventure. Lights, and Charming little houses with christmas cheer and charm on the inside were the perfect way to enjoy a little Yule-tide fun. If only it wasn't so FREEZING cold!!!! We have decided to add it to our list of must do merriment next year, but vow to venture out on a warmer night!!

Christmas Eve bowling has become a new tradtion that the whole family enjoys. Poor Grandpa could only sit on the sidelines this year, but next year he better be ready to get his game on.
