Christmas 2013

We had a fabulous Christmas this year with Clint's family down in California.  The kids love going down there for Christmas to see all their cousins and especially Grandma and Grandpa.  They were so spoiled this year by both Santa, Mom and Dad and Grandmas and Grandpas.  The two older ones got what they asked for and more and Conrad really could care less.  He took forever to open presents.  When I asked both Callie and Curran what their favorite presents were, Callie said it was her fake nails and makeup she got.  Curran said it was the slinky dog from toy story.  Funny thing is, both of those gifts came from either grandmas and grandpas or other people.  The favorite toy Conrad liked playing with was also from grandma and grandpa.
I do have to admit after seeing all the snow that was here in Utah and that they were going to have a White Christmas, really made me miss home on Christmas.  I know it sounds crazy that I missed the cold and the snow on Christmas, but growing up with that really makes you miss it when you don't have it. 
 On Christmas Eve, we made cookies for Santa and the kids got videos from him.  We also tracked him all day on the Norad Santa Tracker.  They LOVED that!  That night they got their Christmas Jammie's which they all loved!
I love the Holiday's!  I love the anticipation.  I love all of the excitement the Holidays bring.  I think I love it more than the actual day itself.  I am always sad it's over when I have to take my Christmas stuff down.  I can't wait until next year to do it all over again!
I hope everyone had as wonderful of a Christmas as we did!



















Christmas night all of Clint's family came over and we enjoyed a really yummy dinner and visited all night.  The kids had a blast running around with cousins and making millions of pictures for everyone.
