Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2011

This year for Christmas we headed to the 73° weather in California.  It was nice to not have to wear coats outside to play and Cason enjoyed exercising everyday.   

Christmas Eve:
-traveled during the day (Millie was great!  Finally!)
-went to Cason's sister's house
-ate a yummy meal which included the traditional brisket
-Millie opened her jammies and was off to bed.  The three hour time change wore her out.
-The kids told the story of Christ's birth and we sang songs
-white elephant gifts...large underwear, booty pop, fart book, brussell sprouts...just to name a few.  Hilarious!
-then we were off to bed.






Christmas Day:
-opened presents 
It was so fun this year because I felt like Millie knew what was going on.  She would tear open those presents and was excited to see what was inside.  She loved helping Cason and me open our presents too.  Little did we know, the poor peanut had double ear infections.  (hence the red under her eyes)  But she was happy!
-went to church
-came home, hung out and then went to Cason's sister's house again for dinner.






     











We had a great Christmas enjoying family and reflecting on our Savior Jesus Christ.

  10. love this blog! thanks for commenting on mine. it's so fun to find new blogs to read! i actually did use the ISO in some of those photos. some needed flash because they were still so dark outside... it's so much funner to have the sun and daylight. don't you agree? i got lazy and left my white balance on auto. i'll try changing it next time! thanks for you advice.

    don't you just love elle. on and rebbie! i swear we've met before? no?
