Christmas morning!

Christmas was a bit different for us this year as we had to prepare the night before putting batteries in various toys (for some toys, putting batteries in was the gift!), stuffing stockings and wrapping last minute gifts. We had a big breakfast before any unwrapping, which was delightful. Kurtis got most of the gifts this year.. I can't help finding things that he likes/needs and getting them for him. He got some nice hiking boots he wanted, a paintball gun thanks to my sister and brother-in-law, a BYU visor since he gave his other one away, a corvette poster thanks to my dad and a few other little things. I got some clothes and.. drumroll please.. a Shark steam-mop! Ohh how I love this thing. We also bought a new camera and Kurtis took me to see White Christmas at our local playhouse for a final date before the baby was born. This came with the promise of more date nights to come. That's what I really wanted for Christmas-dates with my husband! Sarah didn't know what to think of Christmas. She liked ripping the paper off things but wasn't interested in a whole lot until she saw a little school bus that plays 'Wheels on the bus' (that toy has become annoying) and her princess chair! Her cousin Lucia has one and Sarah loved to play with it when we saw them over the summer. We knew we had to get Sarah one too. It's her throne. We had a relaxing day and then an excellent turkey dinner. It was a great day. We have so many things to be thankful for this Christmas.

My parents!
