CHRISTMAS!!!

First off we had a little Christmas at Kris's parents, on the 4th, before Kris went to Colorado. We opened presents from each other. Everything was great, (I still need to get the little kiddo's something, my bad), but parents spoiled us. It was fun. We ate. Watched a movie. I love this time of year. So cozy... :) I did not take pictures of this for some reason. SORRY!! BUT, THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE PRESENTS!!!
We had our Christmas on the 18th, the Saturday before Christmas, because we were going to be flying out Christmas Day to Texas for a short hunting trip. So here's our early Christmas morning. It was fun. Declan loved every minute of it. His jaw kept dropping and saying "WHOA! WOW!" It was SOOO FUN!!! I got spoiled too.. Kris always does great without me even giving him ideas. I LOVE YOU KRIS!!

Kris having a hard time opening Woody... it took him quite a bit to get him out and Declan was getting impatient!! hahaha...


YAY!!! He got a Big Buzz and a Woody!!

My cute Goober, Happy as can be!!

Then we had Christmas with my parents on Christmas Eve. After we did this, they took Liam for a whole week while we would be in Texas. I missed him a lot, but it was good for him to get to know my parents better. Sorry to my mom though for the lack of sleep and constant going :) BUT, I know Liam was in good hands!! LOVE YOU MOM AND DAD!!! OH!! Plus, while I was gone my little sister Kylee worked at the Motel. She pretty much learned everything in a day. She did great!! Took care of the Motel, my house, my dogs... VERY GRATEFUL!! THANK YOU KYLEE!! I LOVE YOU TOO!!!

Liam trying to sit up by himself... not quite there yet! :)

My mom and dad spoiled us ROTTEN like always. They go above and beyond. I am very grateful for them. I always wish I could do more and give them more, and I hope someday I can finally do that. They deserve the best!!

I still have my tree up to this day, and all the decor. I think I'll keep it for a bit. It takes forever to put it all up...just to take down after a month.

This time of year is the best I think. We have Thanksgiving to remember all that we are grateful for...then to follow is CHRISTmas. To remember the birth of our Savior. The miracle. The blessing. The reason why we are here. He is the ultimate, the one who we want to be like. I am blessed to be apart of HIS church. To know why we are here. To make mistakes. To repent. To have an Eternal Family. Family is the MOST important thing. That is what Temples are all about. To keep us ETERNAL...together forever. I would do anything for my family. When they hurt, I hurt. When they are happy, I am happy...and I know they feel the same for me.

I hope you all had a good Christmas and were surrounded by those you love!!!
