We had a wonderful, delightful Christmas season. So much fun, relaxation, focus on the Savior, and abundance of treats. :) Here we are all bundled up to see the lights at Temple Square on Christmas Eve.

Christmas morning was hilarious. We went to wake the girls up at 7:30, and Whitney would have none of our usual tradition of coming down the stairs one at a time so we can get a video of each reaction. She popped right out of bed and ran for the stairs. I tried to stop her but she was too quick and I raced down to get this picture! She was way too impatient to eat breakfast until all the presents were opened.

One of the cutest things about Christmas is how excited the girls are to give. Obviously we try to emphasize this at the best part of Christmas! This is Katelyn excitedly grabbing her present for Whitney so she could open it.
And Whitney with said present. So cute.
We also loved going to church on Christmas, and spending Christmas night and the next day with the Murrays. Sorry I never take pictures when we're together!
This was Christmas morning number 2, 2 days after Christmas when we set up the dollhouse from Grandma and Grandpa Murray late the night before and they ran down to see it in the morning. Heaven!
Then we went to California, thanks Eric!! The girls got to see tons of family including 2 sets of great-grandparents, enjoy the nice weather and the trampoline,
they had plenty of time for wrestling their uncles and playing with their aunts...
and everyone was so nice and fun with them.
they also got to play with cousins (I didn't get any pictures!)
Last but not least, I just had to take a picture of the Haunted Water Park. Anyone read Percy Jackson? This place totally reminds us of a water park in that series. It's between Baker and Barstow, all you Californians know what I'm talking about. So creepy and funny!
