Christmas Day

We had a wonderful quiet Christmas at home. We woke up that morning to find that Santa had come! Waiting on the stairs to see what Santa brought.
Benjamin's presents- Toy Story 3 Lego train, Mickey Mouse light, and Toy Story DVD
Emma- dolly stroller, white dog (which she calls Webkinz), Beauty and the Beast DVD, and Mickey Light
Jacob- Elmo DVD, Piggy Bank, and Mickey Mouse Light


Benjamin saw these light up Mickey Mouses at the Disney on Ice show that we went to together in November. I told him they were too expensive there and that I could try and find one another place. I looked and looked but I couldn't find them. Benjamin was ecstatic to see that Santa found them!
We then opened presents and played with toys all day long. I was the first one out of my pajamas at 3:00p.m. It was a great relaxing family day.

Santa Visits Our House!

I don't know how in the world we got so lucky, but Jumpin' Jasper must have put in a good word for us. We heard bells ringing and then looked outside the back door to see Santa Claus standing there. He came inside and brought each of the kids a pre-Christmas present. He even knew our elf's name and reported back on things that Jumpin' Jasper had told him about our family! The kids loved their presents, Benjamin a train that you build and paint, Emma a princess music box, and Jacob a new outfit to wear. All the gifts are just perfect. Thanks Santa for taking time out of your busy schedule to come and visit! We will be sure to have those chocolate chip cookies that you requested ready tomorrow night!

3 Months Old!

Ward Christmas Party

We had a wonderful ward Christmas party this year. Here are some pictures of the event.

Emma was not liking Santa Claus at all this time!
