Christmas Day 2011

After our relaxing night the kids still slept in until 8 o'clock. My kids love their sleep like their daddy. By the time we got out and we were ready the kids were MORE than ready to get this show on the road.
Aaron took a cute picture.
This tradition came from Aaron's family.
Gotta get a picture of all the sleepy faces before opening presents.
Each of the kids loved what Santa brought them.
Madi was so excited for her American Doll.
Porter loved his scooter.
Ry was very surprised with his go-kart.
Brayd was thrilled with is bike.
All the kids helping Ossie open his present.
We try to do Christmas in a very organized manner. Where one kid opens a present at a time and they all take turns. This makes Christmas last ALOT longer and they all get to see what each other got. My favorite part about the whole day was when the kids all got their scriptures. The boys got a hard cover of the triple combination and Madi got the good, full set. They were so excited that they stopped to give Aaron and I hugs right in the middle of opening presents.
I love my babies!!
The End Results....
Madi's-and Ossie's-good stuff!
Porter's surprises!
Ry's presents!
Brayd's Toys!
I didn't get a picture of Aaron or I with our "stuff"
This is what I got though.....
Yes, I am going to see Peter Cetera in Sacramento!! Call me a grandma, but I love his music. I could, and do, listen to him All. Day. Long:)
Aaron is SOOOO CUTE!!! I just love the little paper he made up for me.
Aaron got some outfits, books, playing cards that have a picture of him skiing at Lake Powell-my favorite gift to him-and some other odds and ends. His big present was I took the infiniti in to get the front screen to work while we are driving. Whether it is the Navigation working or being able to watch movies. I don't really know how safe that is:) Especially for Aaron. I just hope we don't die. We were all happy with our Christmas Day!
When presents were open, we went up to my parents church for the hour that it was. It was a good meeting and good to remember Christ during all the hustle and bustle.
Madi got this big 'ol reeces bar that she just loved! This was 1/2 of it:)
I know, incredibly healthy!
When church was over we headed to my mom's for some Christmas there. I didn't take very many pictures, but I did take a few....

Brayd, Cam and Brenden in their super hero outfits my mom made them.
They all got 2 of them.
And Makayla!
Porter got this Hexbug.
I didn't get pictures of Madi with her American Doll outfit, or Ry with his Hexbug stuff.
My parents gave us a photo/memory book that they are going to keep putting together and some gift cards.
We gave them a t.v. and a ladder.
I think they were happy!
Christmas was low-key and EXCELLENT!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
