Christmas 2012

We had a fun Christmas! It was a little bit different having a new baby around. John and I are too old for the lack of sleep thing. I think between all the Christmas Eve fun and Dax we got maybe 3 hours of sleep that night. We did create some more funny Christmas Eve memories though so that is fun!! One of our favorite traditions is making a gingerbread house. It is so funny because every year John groans about it but every year he ends up taking it over and barely letting the kids help. It makes me laugh. Here are the kids in their Christmas clothes minus Coleton's tie. I haven't mastered the whole tie thing yet (with 3 boys I should learn) and John is always at the church so most Sundays Coleton gets his tie done right before Sacrament meeting in the foyer. This Sunday was no exception. Here are the kids on Christmas Eve. I just love how exciting Christmas Eve is. Just thinking about it makes me smile! Our Christmas morning mess. I can handle the mess on Christmas but it makes John crazy!! (That is another one of my favorite things about Christmas. It is so funny to watch him try so hard not to be bugged, then go get a garbage bag and start sorting things into piles!)
