Merry Christmas!!!

I love Christmas!  I spent all month waiting for this day to arrive!  
Juel woke up around 6:40 and went to the bathroom.  He said he heard footsteps and when he came out he saw his bike from Santa.  He said he thought Santa came while he was in the bathroom.  Silly boy!  Until grandma said it was her walking around. Anna & Eva woke up so excited and they held hands walking up the stairs together.  Anna found her little tiny cows from Santa and loved them! But Eva didn't see her baby and she was quite upset about it!  I tried to get her to open the presents Santa left and she didn't want to.  Finally I got her to open one and there was her baby she had been wanting.  She wanted to just play with her baby all morning!


Juel is loves his Magic trick set!

 This is when I opened my present from Jared, a new camera so I think the pictures actually look better now!  I was so glad to have my Dad and Mom there to open presents with us.  


 I love this picture of Grandpa helping the twins open one of their gifts!
 Anna loves princess Arial!
 Eva loves Princess Repunzel! 
 Eva loves her dolly from Cole!
 Grandma opening a present.
 Yup I think they love their Christmas presents!
 I think Juel was pretty happy with his too!  

 We had such a wonderful Christmas!   I love my kids ages right now!  It's so fun to see how excited they get!
 Jared helping Juel put together a set. 
 We went to Heather's house for breakfast and Eva loved Jaden's new chair and wanted her picture taken.
 All ready for church!  I just love going to church on Christmas Day!  I think we should do this every year!
 It finally warmed up a little so Juel could try out his new bike.
 We had Christmas dinner at Stacies and Eva loved the cucumbers and rolls.  She went back about 5 times to get more!  I personally fell in love with the Turkey that Jana & Stacie made.  So moist and yummy!
 Chantel with little Luke.  I fell in love with his cute little frownie face!
 The girls got babies with a cradle that Grandpa Moody made and beautiful crochet dresses and blankets that Grandma Moody made.  They loved them!
 The twins wanted some close ups taken...silly girls!

 See how adorable these outfits are?!?! And the girl holding them is pretty adorable too!
 It's not Christmas without some time playing in the snow!
 Juel testing out the new sled!
 Anna gave it a try!
 Jared tried the broken sled on the big jump! Yup, it still works!
 This picture cracks me up because my nephew Jack is looking right at me going off the jump instead of being scared and wondering where and how he will land!
 We had a girls cousins sleepover at our house.  There are only about 7 girls and about 16 boy cousins.  Definitely outnumbered!  

 We celebrated Jana's Birthday.  Does a torch light a candle....I think not!
 Happy Birthday to a wonderful grandma, mother, and mother in law!  We love you!
We had a wonderful week with the Moody's.   Lot's of memories made!  After all of that partying now it's time to recuperate!!!
