We had a magical Christmas! Christmas eve we spent in the mountains skiing. It was so fun to be in the snow. All the snow had melted in the valley.
We had our annual pajama hunt and everyone found thier new jammies. The boys got slippers.
We watched the movie "The Nativity" it came out in 06. It was very well done and we enjoyed watching it. It was a wonderful reminder of why we celebrate Christmas and what it truly means.
Chloe kept running down stairs to look at the computer to see where Santa was. The kids had the "Santa Tracker" on. She was very worried he wouldn't come to our house cause we were all still awake.
We made Santa some cookies and the girls put them out on the santa plate and they also gave the reindeer their 9 carrots. A tall glass of milk topped it off and also a letter from Hailey.
We read "The Night Before Christmas" book and then everyone hit the hay.
We noticed one gift by the fireplace and were very surprised that Santa left us all a wii!
We had a great day playing and being together. Joel tried to beat everyone on the wii, but Hailey punched him out in boxing and Chloe beat everyone in bowling and I hold the record in archery. Seems to me the girls in this family dominate!
The girls told me they wanted bath robes. Everytime they would say it I would say, "what for...you would never wear it". We would be in a store and they would go straight to the bathrobes and beg for one. I never gave in.
I noticed they were on a really good sale one day and bought them. You would have thought they won the lottery! They were so excited. They actually wear then all the time.
(note to self...just buy bathrobes)
We drove to the hospital that night and visited with Aunt Stephanie. She is expecting baby #5 and was only 25 weeks along when her water broke. She is in the hospital until the baby is born. (hopefully not anytime soon

Ah you did give into the bathrobe idea? They are so cute! Kayla has been begging me for one too but I keep telling her the same thing..."when would you wear a bathrobe?" Looks like Santa treated you well this year and everyone was on the nice list!
Those bathrobes are so cute! Where did you get them? Macey would go nuts for one... but I'm afraid I'd never get her out of it. I want to see a picture of the boys' slippers! Haha. They sound PRETTY COOL!
How cute is it that Hailey wrote Santa a letter? Macey was also addicted to the Santa Tracker.
DURR. Of course they were in the picture! Haha. They are pretty cool, but is it weird that Grandma Judy wears those same ones? HAHAHA. Vintage is in. :)
Bathrobes are from target...$10. They are the best...super soft!
Are you saying Grandma Judy wears slippers like the ones my boys have? They really wanted Mocassin type slippers. I guess they are in these days.
