Christmas...

This year Christmas was just perfect. Since we live in the same town as both our parents we get to do Christmas morning and Santa at our own house and my parents didn't come over till later in the morning and we went to Broadhead's after church to do presents there so for Santa and the first bit of the morning it was just our little family of 4 and it was so nice and slow paced. The girls got to enjoy everything they got from us and Santa before my parents brought over their presents from them. Then they got to enjoy those and after church enjoyed the ones from the Broadhead's it was spaced perfectly as to not overwhelm them by all the craziness. It was perfect!

The Loot from Santa Claus.... 
Molly- Bike, Cd Player, Game, Ariel Barbie, Block Choo-Choo-Train, and Stocking
Maggie- Princess 4-wheeler, Stroller, Pink Baby, and Stocking
 
Maggie wanted a bike, but she will get Mols old one that looks brand new so she got the 4-wheeler instead, but really wanted to ride Molly's bike too- Molly wanted an Ariel Barbie without legs just a mermaid tail really really bad-it was the top of her list!
 A big girl bike since her knees hit the handlebars on her old one- it was time to upgrade and Santa did just that!
 This crazy and a 4-wheeler...A little scary, but perfect!
 Opening Presents with just our family of 4...


 Eating Santa's left over cookies!




 Before my parents came over Maggie was decked, new purse, baby, and her favorite skirt ready to go shopping or so she says....girl after my own heart!
 Test Spin around the living room...
 Grandma Kara, Grandpa Steve, and Cody joined our morning party.... It was really relaxed and chill the whole day could not have been better!
 The Girls great grandma gets them these dolls every year.... Molly has 4 now and Mag has 1...
 Uncle Cody made this girl so very very happy and got her her own Ice Cream maker and bowls/spoons to go with it!
 My mom got me this picture of the Temple, and totally surprised me cuz Clint was going to get it and said he didn't come to find out she text him and said she already had it for me.. It is so beautiful and I love it so so much!
 After church we went to Broadhead's and had more presents....After the other kids were done opening they booked it and left, but Maggie stayed around and passed out presents and got to open the ones for the whole family. She got this Octopus from Grandma Janet, and Grandpa Craig-it is a favorite for sure!
 Our kids made out like bandits and got totally spoiled- 
Molly's Loot-minus the Cd Player that was already set up...
 Maggie's Loot
 One of the biggest highlights was finally getting to see baby Everett!!! I have been dying to get to snuggle him and kiss his chubby little cheeks. The girls were both equally in love....
 Maggie had the biggest smile on her face the whole time Grandma Janet helped her hold the "Tute Baby"
Maggie needed to wear her hat over for dinner and Kyle happened to have one very similar one of his buddies brought him from their mission. They looked perfect together...
 
It was a perfect Christmas with lots of great time with family and just hanging out while Clint is out of school...

Peri got the same doll as Mags from beep beep. The bowls and spoons Mol got look like ones we used to have when we were younger that beep beep sent to mom.
