Christmas Fun!

It seems Christmas came way to fast this year and left equally as fast!- I can't believe it's already over! We had a great holiday season, it started down in Utah with Jay's family. Brittany & Lyle got married and they had a family dinner, Lola had Santa come and my kids loved it.








It was so nice to see all of Jay's family and get to visit with them.
We then had our Armstrong Christmas party at my mom's house. The kids had a blast sledding and riding on the four wheelers.





After sledding, we had dinner and acted out the nativity, every year for as long as I can remember we have done this!- It is so fun and a great family tradition!





After singing songs, Santa showed up, once again the kids were so excited!- Easton loved Santa this year, everytime he saw him, he would run up and give him a big hug!-At the mall he snuck around to the Santa Claus exit and crawled right up on his lap! Santa was wondering were this little boy came from!


Mackie was not real excited to sit on Santa's lap!





For Christmas Eve we had all of Jay's family come to our house and had dinner and opened gifts. I'm not the best at cooking for a large group but, I think it turned our pretty good!





After Jay's family left, I always do the tradional PJ's on Christmas Eve!


Christmas morning was so much fun!- It was great watching the excitement on their faces!- I loved watching each of them show each other what they got from Santa!


We then went down to my parents house and had a wonderful breakfast and opened more gifts!- The elders were able to join us and it was so nice having them there. Hunter thinks Elder Matheney is wonderful and would not leave his side!- It was so nice to have both sets of my grandparents their and my aunt louise.





We had such a wonderful holiday season and we have so much to be grateful for. I can't express how thankful I am for everything I have and for my amazing family!-
