Christmas time is always so fun! This was our year to be in Cali for Christmas so we spent some time with Utah cousins before we left. We did a small gift exchange. The kids had a blast. They love each other so much!
Ellie received nail polish and we gave Lila a Lalaloopsy coloring book. They were both in heaven!
We gave Logan some awesome wristbands for basketball. Somehow I didnt get a good picture of him wearing them. Sorry Bud!
Trevor received some Mario Kart jammies which thrilled him. He asks to wear them every night.
Ellies loving her polish. She has each of her fingers painted a different color.
We gave Noelle a journal and a pad of paper and pen. I think she liked it.
Here's Trev and Ellie in the car on our way to California. They were very happy to be entertained by music, DS, and movies.
I figured Brian and I needed a pic too.
CHRISTMAS EVE!
We have a traditon in my family to open jammies on Christmas Eve. We all have to look good in pictures on Christmas morning. LOL
Cute Little Emma (another cousin) wont leave Ellies side. Almost every pic I have of Ellie has sweet little Emma in it. So Funny!
Unfortunatley, we ran out of time on Christmas eve to make our normal cookies so we decided that Santa would like a cinnamon roll instead. I think Santa was pleased. We also didn't have any normal carrots for the reindeer. I dont think they minded either. Ellie had to write a note to let Santa know about the carrots and the milk in the fridge. These are my most favorite parts of Christmas.
Ellie woke up first and was so excited. I made her lay on the bed with me for a bit and then we decided it was time to wake up the boys. We tried Trevor first. He was so tired though. He laid in his bed and said "Just bring me my present". I laughed so hard I almost cried. I couldnt believe any could would say that on such a BIG DAY! He eventually got up and was all about helping daddy get up. Brian wasn't too pleased. Oh well...IT'S CHRISTMAS!!!
We finally got daddy up but as you can tell Trev was still really tired but Ellie was ready to go. We finally make it out to the tree and the kids were ecstatic! I didnt get any great pics of what the received. From Santa they both got a scooter. Ellie also got a Lalaloopsy doll and Trevor got Squinkies. I think Santa succeeded.

It looks like you had a great holiday, Emily!
I love your carrots and cinnamon roll. Looks like you guys had a good Christmas! The kids are already looking so much older and you are always so beautiful. For the record I think I am the worst at blogging.. I haven't updated it in over two years. Yours is great!
