Nevermind that it's March . . . .
We enjoyed spending Christmas Day with the Georges. The girls opened their stockings before 9:00 church. I love having Sacrament meeting on Christmas. Wonderful meeting of music and testimony. The best part was when the primary sang. Mariah and Elaine joined them on the stand and did a great job, and Cami had a solo. She sang beautifully!
The girls enjoyed a breakfast of stocking loot: oranges, juice, fruit roll-ups, and carob peanut clusters.
I love this picture of Elaine and Alli (her last Christmas as a single lady).
After church, we enjoyed a low-key, relaxed time opening presents.
Books from Grandma Shaunna and Grandpa Jim.
Playing with cars from their stockings.
Tea set from Mom and Dad.
Had to be taken out of the box immediately. This was a great last-minute, $5 purchase. They play with it all the time!
Fancy dresses from Mom and Dad.
Sal was ecstatic! The other girls were pretty pleased too. These were the only gifts we brought with us from Oklahoma.
Marble track from Grandma Shaunna and Grandpa Jim.
One of the girls' favorite (and most used) gifts was from Danny and Jessie. Jess made them some play food out of felt. I didn't get any pictures, though.
Eating lunch and sporting the mask Cami made.
Marble track fun.
And destruction.
Dancing.
Christmas evening, we went to Mike's grandparents' house and enjoyed more relaxed time with family. Grandma Shirlene and Gramps know how to make everyone feel special and loved.
Christmas is always such a reminder of how blessed we are to have our family and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
