Christmas

Christmas Day was lovely! It was a bit of a blur because Grace was literally awake until 2am Christmas Eve night because of her broken leg, and then she woke up at 6am and was quite cranky, but other than that, it was a great day! The kids were anxious to go downstairs!

 Everyone was excited about their new things. Connor and Eli had been requesting a basketball hoop and a drone (respectively) for months, and neither one thought they would actually get them, so they were very pleasantly surprised! Anna wanted a swingset, but that's a little difficult in the winter, so we got her a slide and she has been enjoying it! It was going to be for both the girls, but then Grace broke her leg, so we were happy we had stashed away this little rocking horse from our neighbor thinking we might give it to her for Christmas or her birthday. That worked out great!

 It was a beautiful sunny day and looked so pretty with our little dusting of snow. This is the closest we've ever had to a white Christmas, so we were excited!

 Grace got several new baby dolls for Christmas and has been loving on them lots.

 Knowing how much my husband likes soft cuddly things I got him the world's softest shirt (it's like a thick blanket made into a shirt) and a plush throw blanket. He was pretty happy!

 Weee!

 The Weaver cousins got Eli this pentomino puzzle and everyone was obsessed with it for the first few days! My mom literally spent hours on it every night after the kids went to bed, it was hilarious.

 Along with the Bop-It. Haha.

 We got lots of new fun games too! And yes, everyone's wearing shorts and it was super freezing outside (I think this was actually the day after Christmas). They think as long as we don't have to go anywhere that day, they can wear shorts. Whatevs.

 Handsome man.

 My dad took this picture. It was one of a few smiles we got from Grace on Christmas Day! Poor baby. Glad she got to enjoy her horsie!

It was a great Christmas! We just hung out at home playing games and resting Christmas Day and the day after and then on the 27th, Jeremy and I went down to Louisville to go to the temple. My parents watched the kids and we were able to go do sealings in the temple together, which we hadn't done in a really long time. After, we went to lunch and then headed home and then my parents left shortly after. It was a good visit!
