We have had such a wonderful Christmas season so far! We are so blessed with fabulous friends and family. This is a little bit of a picture overload, but we want to be able to remember all the memories!
Here is a little Christmas prep including Rudolph pancakes, Christmas Preschool Day and
huge cookies that dad and Chace couldn't pass up when they were Christmas shopping!
(Our kids have quite the smiles for pictures!)
We started out the family party season by having the Saunders Party at my parent's house this year so it was nice we didn't have to travel real far! What family party isn't complete without pulling out the old slides and watching them on the projector and eating lots of food!
We were all able to go to the Hansen party in Tooele for the first time in a while since Trav isn't working with Athletics anymore! Chace was so excited to see Santa, and as you can see, Aubree wanted her present, but didn't want Santa. :) Chace got his first Nerf Gun... watch out Aubree!
During the break Aubree loved hanging out with Aunt Hailey. She was helping her get ready when we looked away for two seconds and quickly realized Aubree knows how to unscrew mascara, and "knows" where to put it!
Christmas Eve brought our traditional Hmong egg rolls made by Jason, present anticipation and of course the Nativity which Chace and Aubree loved! They didn't want to get out of their "married and jovice" costumes as Chace calls them. We had some pretty wound up kids but it is so fun now that they know more of what is going on at Christmas time!
Christmas morning was such a blast, it makes me realize how lucky I am to have
children of my own when I get to see the excitement in their eyes!
We were able to Skype with Brad for about 45 min. which was awesome! My one sewing project this year was turning a pair of Trav's favorite pjs from a few years back into new little pjs for Chace! They went great with his new cowboys boots from Grandpa Saunders and raccoon hat from Trav!
We still have a couple more family parties this coming week so I will post pics from those soon.
We had a wonderful Christmas and hope you all did as well!
We are so blessed, this year has been wonderful!
