Christmas is always such a blast and everyone is so full of love and excitement. We let the kids look through their stockings while Daddy sleeps a bit and then we sing and read scriptures and express thanks for our Savior, the greatest gift ever given to this world before we start giving gifts to each other. After we open our presents, we get ready and head to G&G Merrill's for a Christmas Dinner and more gifts and games and laughs. It's always over way too quickly but what a beautiful day!  |
| Eli with his special gifts that Santa put into his stocking. He really did love the Superman wallet and earbuds even though you'd never know it by his expression. |
 |
| Ava loved what Santa brought her in her stocking. Lots of hair stuff and make up. |
 |
| The thing about growing up is you start to get things you need in your stocking. Like undies and socks. He got some fun things too like gift cards and candy but I love the look on his face! |

| Everyone helping Eli open his trains. |

| Eli's main gift from 2016. A little Mini Cooper Beachcomber. It actually goes pretty fast and has lights and a spot for him to plug in a phone to listen to music too. |
 |
| Ava with her main gift. A new electric scooter. But it went so fast that it scared her to death and I don't think she even rode it twice. |
 |
| Jake with his tripod. He was so happy about getting this so he could set up his camera. |
 |
| Brad got some amazing Adidas sneaks and the whole series of Fablehaven. |
 |
| Princess all dressed up with her new Polaroid at G&G Merrill's. |

This is the one time I especially don't like living far away. You guys have such fun on Christmas being with the family. Such a great tradition. Hopefully as my kids get married and have kids, they will come to my house and we will start seeing our numbers grow!
