Christmas Day 2010!

We had great Christmas at home this year. Every year since Shane and I have been married we are usually away at families or family has come to be with us. It was nice having a cozy little family Christmas this year. Even though Shane had to work half a day. We got up at 4 to open presents, have yummy cinnamon rolls, and eggnog for breakfast in are snowman mugs. Here are just a few pictures of our morning.







Christmas Eve 2010!

We had a great Christmas Eve Dinner with friends we had some yummy ham, and potatoes and rolls. We then came home to do some of our own family traditions...here are some pictures and some videos of are fun night!
We started out by playing are traditional flour game, opening are Christmas PJ's...then we got a cool surprise you will have to watch the video. (Santa dropped something off at our home last night)
To start a new family tradition we sang Christmas Hymns then we watched a video of our Savior's birth, we then each took a turn baring our testimonies. I am truly grateful for the gospel and for my Family and Friends we love you all so much! Have a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!!!





Every Christmas we play the flour game you measure out one cup of flour put it on a plate like a sand castle then you put a penny on top and slowly take turns cutting slices off when the penny falls you have to get it with your mouth. (yes...we clean the money!)

Ice Skating!!!

We decided to go out to Brunch at are favorite breakfast place http://www.originalpancakehouse.com/ then we went ice skating with a bunch of friends! We had so much fun. Braydon had so much fun he can't stop talking about it. They had these metal and plastic things to help the kids skate around. Once Braydon had the hang of it he was cruisin around on his own. Check out the videos.
