Merry Christmas!

Christmas was quiet this year. It was just Brig, Whitney and me. My parents came a few days before Christmas for a nice visit. We played games and made caramel popcorn. We enjoyed their visit even though it was short (thanks Ben and Connie for letting us steal them for a couple days). Last night we went out to eat at a Japanese restaurant. Whitney loved the Miso Soup.


This morning Whitney slept in late til 8am! We had Whitney open her gifts after a pancake breakfast. She didn't quite get the point of opening presents, but she sure loved what she got. We got her some blocks, a few books, plastic links, hair rubber bands and her aunt Connie made her some cute, cute, cute hair flower clips. My family did a homemade Christmas again this year, and once again I was very happy with what we got from my brother Jesse and his wife Joyce. They are super neat silhouette pictures. During Whitney's nap Brig and I opened our gifts. Later that afternoon we sat down to a Christmas Dinner that I made all by myself. I spent hours on it. I now appreciate all the hard work that my mom went through for Christmas dinners. I was happy that it all turned out okay. Our friend Andy came over to eat dinner with us. We spent the rest of the night watching a TV and playing with Whitney til she went to bed.

Merry Christmas...a couple of days late. It sounds like you had a nice Christmas. I hope we can have a nice quiet Christmas at home next year. Thanks for the gifts. A few of us were talking about how you and Brigham are good gift givers.
