Christmas!

We moved into our new house two weeks before Christmas, so things were a little crazy, but we did it and had an awesome Christmas!
We took the kids to the Lehi Kneaders to see Santa!
He is our FAVORITE Santa to visit! and we get yummy french toast after!
(I love Lily's face as she is listening to Santa!)
Can't forget our little Macy Bug!
She was cool with Santa!
I love Tyson's cheezer! He is so excited to visit Santa!

We made Santa's Cookies! and a mess!!

Christmas eve!
So this was the first year that I gave the kids PJ's on Christmas eve and they were excited until Tyson went to put them on and he broke down. He was worried that if he wore his new PJ's they would become old and worn out, but if he didn't wear his new PJ's when we took pictures Christmas morning the girls would be in new PJ's and he wouldn't. It was quite the dilemma! Long story...semi short, he decided to put them on first thing in the morning before we opened presents!
So our tree was HUGE! I was looking for an inexpensive fake tree, but never found one I liked for the right price so we decided to get a real tree again this year! But with only one week before Christmas we didn't want to pay a lot so we shopped around. One guy wanted $69.99 for a 6ft tree a week before Christmas and he wouldn't budge...are you kidding me!!! Then Home Depot only had their $54 trees left and wouldn't budge. I then happened to be driving on 126th up the river bottoms and saw a sign...All Trees $10 or less! I called Brandon and we chose our tree. We told the kids to pick ANY tree and Tyson picked the biggest one on the lot! We were cool with it until we got home and thought...WHAT WERE WE THINKING!!! Luckily the tree stand was big enough and our living room is two stories tall so we were fine. And that is the story behind our 10foot tree!!
Santa really spoiled the kids!
It always cracks me and Brandon up when the kids walk into the living room and they see everything except for their own Santa toy! Tyson saw mine and Brandon's stockings (that were nearly empty!) Lily saw Macy's toy and not her huge doll house! It kills me!
Lily got this HUGE doll house!


Tyson got Cars2 legos!

And lots of toys and clothes!


Tyson and Lily were happy to help Macy open her presents!
She thought it was pretty fun too!



That tongue is always out!


Happy kids!


Tyson wanted a Lalaloopsy mustache...Lily was MAD!

Merry Christmas 2011!

Where did you move to? We should get together, it's been a while! I agree with Lynette. I like your hair.
