Christmas 2013

We stayed home for Christmas this year.  It was the first time we had Christmas morning at out house and I loved it!  We ate dinner with Grandma and Grandpa Kunz at their house on Christmas Eve and then we acted out the nativity.  It was fun watching the kids. 

I thought Atreyu was going to climb in my bed on Christmas morning like he usually does but I woke up a little after seven and he was still in bed.  Grandma and Grandpa came over and then the kids woke up.  We had to wait a few minutes for Dad to get up and then Atreyu rushed to see what Santa brought.  Cambria got some My Little Ponies with cute little houses and Atreyu got a whole bunch of Super Hero Squad action figures and a helicarrier.  He was so excited! 

 

After seeing what Santa had brought we ate a yummy breakfast and then opened presents.  Atreyu flew through his and had finished opening all of them by the time Cambria had one open.

Cambria had more fun playing with each toy after she opened it.  We had to keep showing her that she had more presents to open.

Jesse and I gave each other this really cool rug (or rugs) that he had been watching on eBay forever.  They cost way too much but at Christmas time they went on sale for about half off so we decided we should get them.  I need to get a better picture but this is the best I have right now.

We had a wonderful, low-key Christmas.  Christmas has always been my favorite holiday but now that I have kids, I love it even more.  I'm so thankful that we have the opportunity to remember our Savior's birth and I am trying to teach my children the importance of our Savior at Christmas time.  I am so thankful for my sweet little family.
