Christmas Day!

Our family tradition has always been to meet in someone's bedroom for family prayer before we line up (from youngest to oldest) to head downstairs. Glen always goes down to make sure Santa has come, and then we head down. It was so fun to have Elsie and Bennett here. Their excitement was contagious! We take turns going from youngest to oldest opening one package at a time. It took a while, but I think it is really fun to see everyone's reactions to their presents.

 Oh the joy, Santa brought Bennett a Hot Wheels track and cars.  He was soooo excited!
 Elsie got a bouncy horse.  We all told her it was "Dominick the Donkey"
 Jared with a bluetooth speaker.
 Glen with a pair of flannel lined jeans from L.L.Bean.
 Justin - the grill master!
 Bennett with Legos - and so it begins!
 Lauren with the t-shirt Jared gave her from BYU-Provo. 
 She's waiting to see if she's been accepted there.

 Erin holding her "make" from Glen.  It's our family motto.
 Lauren with luggage - college, here I come.
Michelle with her necklace from Dave and Cathy Brooksby. Thanks!
