We had such a fun and relaxing Christmas this year, it was just what we needed! We had a little get-together with my mom and dad the night before Christmas Eve and then we drove down to St. George Christmas Eve morning.
We arrived just in time for a beautiful Christmas dinner and then we had a little Christmas program followed by a white elephant game for the grown ups that was so funny!
As you can see, all of the kids were completely crazy and of course our boys did NOT want to go to sleep! Being away from home on Christmas Eve makes things very difficult for Santa to get things set up :)
Christmas morning was so fun this year, the boys are at such fun ages and LOVED everything they got. It was so fun to see the excitement on their little faces! Everyone was spoiled as usual. We spent the weekend in St. George playing with all of our new toys and visiting with family and then we headed off to Vegas Monday morning.
The boys loved walking the strip and seeing everything, we were surprised at how much there was to do with kids. We ate lunch at the Rainforest Cafe, visited the m&m factory, went to the aquarium and the bass pro shops, and watched the outdoor shows on the strip at night. Braxton was totally into the Volcano show, Dawson loved the pirate show (Judd loved the pirate dancers:) and Cooper was in awe at the Bellagio water show.
We all had a blast but the boys were exhausted after all the walking they did so the next night Taylor brought them back to St. George for us and they stayed at grandma Bundy's and Judd and I were able to have a night on the town! It was so fun to be able to relax and just hang out without any worries or kids, it was definitely much needed!
Highlights our Christmas include:
*crazy winter weather in St. George
*eating chex mix all day every day
*getting a visit from Santa AND The Tooth Fairy when Dawson lost his tooth on Christmas Eve
*BOD spray from the white elephant game
*Judd getting me a kids sized shirt for Christmas
*the grinch
*playing ticket to ride and scrabble
*the "dead guy" in the elevator
*learning about Dawson's prejudice in Las Vegas
*Braxton scaring Cooper to death at the Rainforest Cafe
*the black guy who loved my sparkly vegas outfit
*Judd video-taping the pirate show dancers for Dawson
*all the hilarious people in Vegas
Hope you all had as many laughs as us this year...Happy New Year!!!
