Christmas Day

This is the man that makes it all possible!!!! He works hard and puts many hours in at the office so our family can enjoy so many things!! He loves his family, and even though the quantity of time is hard for him the quality makes up for it. Hopefully in our 10 year plan, that started a few years ago, he can enjoy more of that quantity time too. Thanks for all you do, and all the love you share!!
Holly and her little helper!! Little Austin wanted to help everyone, not real concerned what was in the boxes, just liked getting the paper off and getting into the boxes. I had mixed emotions about Christmas day----we had Holly home with us for a while, but she had to leave at 4:oo to go back to Provo. Always a bummer when they have to leave!!
Austin was pretty funny with this hat, he got it on and didn't want to take it off, and as you can see because the lack of his shirt it was kind of warm.

THE BOOTS: Holly had really wanted these UGGs---but they were hard to find, every where we checked they were SOLD OUT. I mean everywhere!! One night while she was home we got on the computer and into eBay. What fun that was-we kept bidding--our hearts were beating fast--the SECONDS were going by and I kept getting out bid. It was down to the last second and bingo I got them. One of those exciting Christmas memories. I paid exactly what they would have cost in the store too. The boots came 2 days later, and I didn't tell her they came. SO it was a surprise!
The Little Lamb book was one of Hilary's favorite when she was a little girl. She could tell us the story by looking at the pictures. I had it laminated so it will last a long time, and read many times.

Ohhh - I didn't know about that gift. That book totally reminds me of our childhood. I LOVE that picture of Dad too - wow!
