Christmas

So I got this beautiful new camera and Christmas morning was starting off stressful trying to get the best pictures shooting in manual of course that I decided to put the camera away. I was seeing all their excitement through the camera and fiddling with the settings... maybe by next year I will know how to use it. So here are a few pathetic pictures. Christmas was perfect though. Christmas Eve we went downtown to the condo to have dinner and open gifts.  When we got home we made reindeer food to sprinkle out on the grass, put out milk and cookies and carrots of the deer, read in the scriptures and read The Night Before Christmas. Christmas morning was pure excitement. The girls were up bright and early as usual. We had all the gifts open by 5 am. They spent the morning playing with their toys before going to Jodie and McKay's home for the day. We had such a nice time relaxing, playing games, visiting, eating and the kids played so well together. We all slept well that night. We love Christmas time and are so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who sent His Son. It was so nice celebrating his birth and reflecting on His life over the month. Christmas just keeps getting better as our kids start to know their Savior and as they get into the magic of the season.
