Our Christmas Season

Christmas was a blast this year with a 3 year old in the house. Dallin was way into Santa this year and LOVED all things Christmas related... movies, cookies, advent calendars, decorating the tree etc. We even got to visit Santa a few times! Claire was just busy being cute and had fun crinkling the wrapping paper.

Our Christmas Eve consisted of this cute bundle of joy entering the world. Andy's youngest brother Gregg and his wife Erika had their first baby, Ellie Noel Sylvia. She came a few days early, but we were sure excited to meet her. She is such an angel and her and Claire will be just 6 months apart!

Unfortunately, this was the only picture I took on Christmas Day because I used the video camera most the morning, but these two sure look cute sporting their new rugby sweaters and beanies. The kids were spoiled rotten, Dallin LOVED running down Christmas morning and seeing that Santa had come and even eaten his cookies. He got tons of toys, games, clothes and even a scooter. Claire got lots of infant toys, stacking blocks and clothes. Andy and I didnt buy eachother gifts this year because we got a new tv upstairs a few weeks earlier which we considered our gift to eachother. Our families were super generous as usual, giving us lots of amazing things... too many to name. We sure had a great Holiday season, and hope you all did too!
