Christmas!!!

Christmas morning was magical as always! We opened presents at 7:00 am. I think all of us but Adisyn were showered and waiting til 7 so we could open gifts. We let the kids open their stocking stuff before then, so we played with Ashtyn's chinese jump rope until family arrived to watch us open gifts. Here's a million pictures of how much fun we had!

Before:

Collin thought it was so silly that he got cowboy boots, but he loves them. He wants to keep them perfectly clean:)

Santa led them on a scavenger hunt for their big gifts:

They could hardly wait to try out all their gifts.

Grandpa O'Connor came back at 10:30 til 12:00 so we could exchange gifts with him. He brought a bunch of fun things for the kids! I don't have pictures of Ashtyn because she got an ITUNES gift card and he paid for her to get into gymnastics.

Then we went outside and played some more and the boys tested their pitching machine:

My family all came back to our house and we had our traditional Christmas Day lunch: Turkey roll sandwiches, chips, pasta salad, and cheese ball with crackers. Then we all exchanged gifts to each other.

Grandma and Grandpa got the kids each a character blanket and the kids haven't stopped using them since!

We got Grandpa some Utah Jazz tickets:

Beau, Megan, Dad, Candice, and Kaden got Mom a new phone:

We got her a picture of the St. George temple.

The rest of the afternoon was spent playing! We rode bikes, scooters, games, balloon rockets, airplanes, remote control cars, and played "4 on the couch."

All this boy needed was his skates! This pic is actually the day after Christmas. We had to exchange the ones Santa brought. These turn into roller blades which he can do really good! I'm pretty sure he would have slept in his skates if he could!

That night we went over to the Ashcroft's for Christmas dinner. We had a lot of fun visiting and playing games!
