Merry Christmas!

We spent Christmas Eve with Scott's family in Claremont. We had 28 people for dinner and my mother-in-law had enough Christmas china for everyone! We read the Christmas story from Luke and then read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. Oh yeah, we opened a few gifts as well!

Here is Noah and cousin Jared cutting out the jello jigglers.
Caleb playing Wii tennis and showing everyone what he wants for Christmas (his 2 front teeth)!

My father-in-law Jerry wearing the new hat we gave him. Utah State - his alma mater.
We had to take a picture in our new Christmas pajamas. Every year Scott buys some for me too.

After opening presents at home in the morning, we spent Christmas day with my family in Chino. Much smaller crowd! My brother Tim and his family were in North Carolina (we missed you guys!).

The kids love to get into the dress up box that Grandma has upstairs. This is Noah and Caleb with cousins Kirra and Malia.
My Dad and niece Julia sneaking cookies.
My brother Stew (showing off his new snowboarding helmet) and Scott (pretending to be Oliver Twist).

Why does it seem like it's always over too quickly?

"I'm a hyper-hypo. You're the devil." LOL I can't help but say that every time I see Stew's helmet. LOL
