christmas day...

this was our first Christmas morning to spend at our own home. It was so much fun! The kids loved opening presents and playing with their toys! We got up at about 5:45, i know you're thinking that's early, but i didn't sleep well, and then Sawyer woke up then and I just thought what the heck lets get a going! After daddy went down to turn on the Christmas tree lights and make sure santa had come, we all got to run downstairs and see! i think Charly like Sawyers toys just as much as hers, but it was a fabulous morning followed by waffles for breakfast!
Sayer Christmas morning. Santa brought him: The Lion King movie, a new snow hat, the B. zany zoo cube, some cars, balls, jammies, an outfit, sippy cups and a book.

Dad opening his gift from Santa. Rip 60 so we can get ripped in 60 days. (today was day one of rip 60 and i wanted to puke and pass out at the same time!) Santa also brought him a beaver mountain day pass and some cocoa.

This was sawyers favorite thing to play with Christmas morning!

Charly opening gifts. Santa brought her: an easel, chutes and ladders, the tickle monster book (SO FUN), Winnie the Pooh movie, a dress, an outfit, and a nerf dart gun.

mom Christmas morning. Santa brought me some new toe rings, some pomade for my hair, and some cute shorts!

she told me her new barbie was her favorite present!

Sawyer opening his new blanket mommy made him!

ok, now the boring part, i've got to record or try to record what everyone got!
Sawyer: clothes, drum filled with instruments, remote control car for babies, blocks, little cars, car dash, helicopter, phone, jammies, blanket from mom, blanket from grandma, stuffed polar bear and a farm.
Charly: rapunzel doll to fix her hair, trike, barbie volkswagon, baby barbies with elephant, puzzles, critter clinic, jammies, magic moon dough, lace up cards, lacing beads, a magnadoodle, blanket from mom, blanket from grandma, clothes and a stuffed panda.
Brandy: Toms Shoes, Reebok shoes, Boots, shirts, pants, clothes pin picture frame, rachael ray bubble and brown dishes, purse, foot spa stuff, sub to food network magazine, hat/scarf/gloves, snowflake necklace, beads from italy, cotton candy maker, the Holiday, pocket knife and a Bose docking station.
Corey: Brown dress shoes, gray sunuks, shirts, warm up pants, basketball shorts, Heat Wave book, The girl who played with Fire book, Harry Potter Series on Bluray, Down Vest, sub to field and stream mag, bullets, hiking saw, water filter for camping, a pocket knife, scarf, gift cards to Cabellas and Harbor Freight and a Gloc40.

I seriously think that's it, we were all so spoiled!
So after all the present opening and breakfast, we got ready and packed. Went to see the Monson's and open our gifts there. Watch Corey's dad open his new gun from all the kids and Stacie told us her and Carl are expecting another baby in July. How exciting! It was a quick visit because they were headed to church and we were headed to Bear Lake to visit my family.
So first we stopped to see my grandma for a while and then finally went to relax with the fam. That's when my dad gave us more presents and our pocket knives of course. And we finally let them open our presents from us. Which i took no pictures of :( maybe they did! We ate a fabulous dinner of prime rib, potatoes, sweet potatoes and pie! Played some fun games (guesstures and bananagrams) and then went to bed! too bad Sawyer sleeps like garbage over there! And that's our Christmas day in a wrap for anyone who is still reading, since this post is FOREVER long!

Looks like you guys had fun! The kids are getting way too big. We live too far away- I want to play with you guys! And, I'm quite jealous of those awesome boots :)
