Merry Christmas!

We spent Christmas with just J.D., myself, Dawson, and Monty. Luckily I had decorated the week prior to Monty's arrival. I seriously believe that I subconsciously knew Monty was coming and I was just getting ready so I could relax when he got home. I even pushed us all to go to our Ward party the night before Monty came. It was such a good ward party and we all got to see Mr. and Mrs. Claus. I've never seen Mrs. Claus before, so it was extra special for all of us. Dawson told Santa he wanted a race track and a guitar.


 Christmas Eve Dawson drew a picture for Santa and set it by his milk and cookies.


I didn't get pictures of our decorations, but Christmas morning Dawson woke up at 4:30!! I told him that we still needed to sleep, but he could just sit in the living room and wait until 6. However, Dawson ran to his dad and J.D. got up and played with his new race track that Santa got him. Dawson was SO excited! 

By the time I got out to the living room, Dawson had dumped every stocking out and was more than ready to open the rest of the gifts. We took turns opening gifts and 
Dawson got: a race track, a ukelele from Uncle Choc, a dusty the crophopper remote control plane, a horse shoe tie tac and a warrior tie tac, a fort set up thing, lots of movies, a temple picture, and a samuri castle thing.
Andee was given a butterfly ornament in her stocking from Santa. 
Monty got a digital, 5 second thermometer, some clothes, and a camera toy from Dawson.
Jenny got a paper shredder, a temple picture, some exercise sweaters, a camo sweater to match J.D., a kettle korn popper, and a foot stool so I can get on the bed easier.
J.D. got a cowboy hat holder for the truck and one to hang on the wall, a camo sweater, exercise sweaters, a temple picture, a king size blanket, and a Iphone arm band. 

Here are the boys in their Christmas jammies! Dawson was still sick so he kept wearing his mask. Such handsome boys we have! We spent the rest of the day lounging.
My parents came up from St. George and we had a delicious Christmas dinner: steak, potatoes, salad, and rolls. We watched movies and played with all our new stuff. It was so nice to spend time with my parents too. The next day my dad took us out to eat at Red Robin, and Grandpa paid for Dawson to ride the carousel!

 It was such a special Christmas being able to do our own traditions and have Monty with us.
