Christmas in South Jordan

The girls spent all day on Saturday eyeing the pile of presents underneath the Christmas tree and were so excited that they could open them after church on Sunday.  Of course we had to make them wait...patiently of course...long enough to get some pictures of everyone in our new shiny Christmas Sunday clothes.  Torture I know! 



We also had to wait for Christmas dinner to cook.  While we waited the boys played with Tiawna, obsessed over the train, and gave loves to anyone who asked.




 Finally it was time to open the presents.  My kids had some fun expressions this year as they ripped the wrapping paper off their gifts and as a general rule were just excited to be there with everyone. 




Gift for baby from the girls.
Broncos tickets!

Alysha and Brody announced that they'll be moving to Utah in February which is super exciting.  They are going to be getting a playset in their new huge backyard.

Gifts for the boys.

New DJ sound boards...I think the big boys liked them as much as the little ones.


Boxes work just as well as toys.

Panda hats and scarves for all the kids from Chengdu.

Christmas plates in honor of Leonard.

Everyone with our stockings full of yummy goodies.

And the grand finale with all their spoils.



 When it was time for dinner, Stockton didn't want to put down his new trucks.  

 The roast beast!
 

I've gotta say, it was a pretty great Christmas in South Jordan.  Then it was up to Jeremy to load up the car and get all of the gifts home.  I took the easy way out and flew home, luckily neither one of us has any problems.  Thanks for a great celebration Bruce and Leesa!
