Christmas Day 2011

Wahooo!!! We couldn't believe Christmas had finally come! We had been anxiously waiting this year and couldn't wait to see what Santa would bring. Austin took the girls out into the yard Christmas Eve and let them sprinkle reindeer dust on the grass. The dust was made of glitter so that Santa wouldn't miss our house, and oats for the deer to eat. Oops! I mean, for the reidneer to eat:o)

The bounty of gifts Santa left this year!

Chanel loved the new feeding/crying babydoll and buggie she recieved. The baby would drink her bottle but as soon as you took out the bottle, the baby would cry. Chanel's reaction was always first, a suprised face, then a sad face, saying "Ooohh, baby sad!" She has such good motherly instincts already and love to feed and snuggle her baby.

The girls and their goodies!!!

Poor Bug, she wasn't feeling so well on Christmas. When she saw her huge lion she said, without ANY enthusiasm, "Wow, that's a big lion" then went and laid on it for a while until she had more energy to open other presents.

We went to church where I participated in a musical number then we drove to Nephi to see the Brough family gang. I did take my camera but for some reason didn't get it out for a single picture...what!? I guess it was just that crazy/busy.


Elena's never been one for fancy dress-up unless it's an animal costume but Chanel has loved the Tinker Bell dress-up chest Santa brought. She even falls asleep in her costumes:o) Elena has even enjoyed dressing up as a fairy to play with C. They've been so cute together!

Austin bought me a Kindle Fire for Christmas and I have LOVED it!!! Sadly, Austins Christmas was quite mediocre this year. I just bought him a few things he needed and a DVD or two. What?! We had decided not to give major gifts to each other this year- Next year, Gust...next year you're really going to get it!!!
