Christmas Day

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! Ours was great; it was the first time it was just the three of us. Usually we are making the long trip from SLC to American Fork then out to Tooele and then back to SLC. Although we missed our family we had a great Christmas! Grammie and Grampie sent lots of fun toys for Jacob and so did some of his aunts. I thought we'd put up a few videos of Christmas morning so Grammie and Grampie could see Jacob open and play with some of his presents.


Santa Claus brought this fun wagon to push and pull and it was full of blocks to play with.



Grammie and Grampie sent this vacuum to Jacob. He loves vacuums. It must be the noise and because he sees his mommy and daddy pushing and pulling it. Anytime we get the vacuum out he HAS to be right there helping. This little vacuum was a HUGE hit. He loves it and it is just his size. He played with this ALL day long and once he opened this gift he was done opening gifts.




Jacob just loves dogs. Whenever he sees one he gets really excited and says "dawdgee". It is so adorable. He loved this little "dawdgee" that Grammie and Grampie sent to him. He kept running around and kissing it.



Christmas is a wonderful time of year! We missed you all but had a wonderful time just the three of us. Christmas Eve we spent time reading about the birth of our Saviour and felt the spirit as we focused on Him. Christmas morning we always have a big breakfast with pancakes, sausage, eggs, hashbrowns, and orange juice. For lunch it has become a tradition to have prime rib (we usually went out to Tooele and had this with Andrew's brother Brandon's family) and it was delicious as always. We hope that your Christmas was great and we look forward to sharing it with you once again in the years to come. Thanks to all of you who thought to send something to Denver!
