Christmas Eve

We shared our tradition of tamales for Christmas Eve dinner with Mom and Dad. They loved it. I mean, authentic tamales, rice, and beans...what's not to love?

Christmas jammies! I just got the boys pants this year. They really don't need or want a Christmas t-shirt. So I just went with some comfy pj pants. 

Olivia passed on the torch! First time the boys got to put out cookies for Santa. It's always been Lindsey and Olivia after the boys go to bed. She wanted them to help her this year. 

And then they all slept in the same room! Boys in the bunks and Liv in the king bed. We've just hung on to the bunkbeds after the boys split rooms. Aidan's bedroom is big enough to have the king bed and the bunkbeds in it. It's actually come in handy! And the kids really liked being in there for Christmas Eve.

We had dinner there and after dinner I told Jaime to go ahead and go to mutual as he was in the Young Men's presidency. I wasn't in enough pain and didn't want to go to the hospital too early. Lindsey and Olivia would stay the night since they were going to anyway so Jaime and I could just get up Thursday morning and head to the hospital to be induced into labor. We got the girls in to bed and I said good bye. My brother Darin was home and he drove me to the hospital at 8:30 p.m. I sent Jaime a message I was going and he and my dad (our ward's bishop) would meet me there. I got checked in by 9 p.m. and the nurse checked me and said I...

Time with James

  I invited my nephew James to come stay with us for a week. He's been so much fun to have around. We've had good Sunday and FHE meetings with him, game time - lots of games, and I've just enjoyed his humor and seeing him spend time with my kids.  More games and smoothies. And having three boys to mow the lawn sure gets the job done quick! They were so helpful and happy to work together.  A cute Koda napping picture for us to enjoy. 😊

This year's holiday card.  Front Back I don't write a separate letter but next year I'm thinking I want to make one of those holiday cards that says a few did bits about everyone. Short and sweet, greeting card like and easy to read but filled with love.  I like to post our holiday cards on social media and send it out with a Christmas greeting. That way it gets out to more of our friends and family. :)
