MERRY CHRISTMAS!

the girls woke up at 6:15. i really didn't think they would wake up early but of course they did. it was really cute. we could hear mallory yelling "santa" from her crib. we had to let them get up.
all the loot under the tree.
brett and i got one "big" present (keyboard for me and bar-b-que for brett) and one small one (pair of shoes for me and a new pillow for brett).
mallory's little pile.
olivia's loot
it was a great morning. the girls loved all their presents and just played for hours. it was nice. brett and i put his bar-b-que together later. we have decided that we have come along way in our marriage becauase we actually had a pretty good time putting it together. in earlier similar adventures we were not so good at working together or being very nice. lol.
here is my keyboard. i love it and so do the girls. since we can't get a piano right now, i figured this was the next best thing. we sing and play at least every other day.


we had dinner at the madsens later that day with the missionaries. it was really fun. olivia calls their boys her brothers. she loves to play with them. megan cooked a great ham and and home made rolls, we brought some jello and a pie. it was really good food. thanks madsens.

over all it was a good christmas. we missed having family with us but got to talk to all of them. i would rather see them when the baby comes. hint, hint! i can't wait to have him and show him off.
