More Utah in December

Christmas Morning!
I'm pretty sure it gets more fun each year. The boys were thrilled with all their gifts and loved playing the day away. It was my first Christmas home since Jace was a baby, so I loved being with my family on such a fun morning. My parents always do too much, but it sure does make for a fun morning.

Brunch!

The traditional bruch at Grandma and Grandpa's. Good food and lots of fun new clothes to see.

Jammies for all!

One of my favorite things about Christmas Eve is getting new pajamas. The cool thing about going home for Christmas? Mom still gets them for the adults too!

Christmas Eve at Gummy's

Growing up, I often looked forward to Christmas Eve more than Christmas. It was so fun to gather at Gummy and Gumpy's for a Christmas program, great food and lots of presents. Now, it's even better. My uncle is a chef, so Kobe beef and lobster tail were on the menu, there are lots of little great-grandchildren who have infused new magic into the holiday especially since they got to get and give presents to each other from the store, and my mom did a terrific kid-friendly program. It was a great night.

A Slippery Santa

Every morning the kids woke up and went on a Santa hunt. It was a little wirey Santa that hid all over the house, then when they found him, Santa told grandma where to find a small present for them each day. Of course, they loved it!
