Disclaimer: I have made this blog for the intent to show loved ones what we've been up to lately. I also want to one day print it out and have it as a journal for the kids. I am not doing this to brag at all. I just thought this is a great way for you all to see what life's been like for us and what we've been doing. I love to see other people's blogs and see their pictures and see what they've been up to. That's all I'm doing here. Thank you!

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was a little hectic. We got up and got ready for church at 9. We decided to go to Kev and Tenille's ward because their church was the earliest. And we thought it would be pretty cool to be all together at church. So after I got myself ready to go, we woke up the kids and they ran upstairs to see what Santa brought them. Then we hurried and got them ready and headed to church. It was great.
The boys all ready for church.
The boys were so tired and not all that willing to wake up ths morning, until they saw what Santa brought. Then they perked up pretty fast. The boys all got Christmas jammies that they opened the night before. Such a great tradition.

Spencer loved his new hat. Both the older boys got them and they wore them all day. They wanted to wear them to church, but we told them they can put them back on right when we get home.
It actually worked out pretty perfect having our own little christmas celebration the morning before because then we got to enjoy christmas by going to church and hanging out with family before driving down south.
Lincoln figured out how to turn on his toy. This was his reaction when it came on.
The boys got m&m fans from Santa. They were a huge hit.

We are so blessed. We tried our hardest to instill in our children the true meaning of Christmas. Spencer puts it perfectly when you ask him why we have Christmas and he says, "Well, we have Christmas because Christ is the beginning of Christmas."
