Better late than never right? Phew!!
This was at the HP ward Christmas party - she didn't shed a single tear for Santa! Also didn't smile a tiny bit, but we were just excited that she didn't freak out! hehe.
(Here she was last year!) =)
Back to this year =)
I just had to make goodies for our neighbors this year! These are Peter Paul Mounds...yummm...
The beginning of caramel...
Mmmm, ready to pour...
Yummm...
And gingersnaps!
All packed and ready to go to our awesome neighbors! One of them left a present for Kristie in return on our doorstep when we got home Christmas eve - it was sooo sweet!
Her cute little Christmas jumpsuit from Auntie Katie, adorable. The shirt that goes with it has the grinch and cindy lou who on it!
A little big, but still cute!
So we were spending Christmas Eve with my family. Kristie was being sad and super clingy and we couldn't figure out why. As we were sitting down to a nice Christmas Eve dinner, we decided to lay her down upstairs and let her sleep 'cause it was almost bed time, she wouldn't even eat any appetizers and she was running a fever all of a sudden. When we got up there she threw up. (Alllll over me.) Ohhhh dear, it was SO sad!!! We didn't know how much more she had in her, so we ended up going home. Oh man, it was just so sad to cut the celebrating short! We felt terrible. She threw up several more times throughout the rest of the night. I was so bummed that Christmas was probably going to be a sad day. But miraculously the next morning, she was completely fine! Oh my heavens, I can't put to words how happy I was. We opened stockings, had Kristie open up a couple presents and then my family came over open a few presents and talk to Dallin over in Latvia!! It was soooo fun to hear his voice! (He only has 6 months left!) Then we got dressed and headed over to the Duces for the rest of the day. Opened presents there, played games, came home for Kristie's nap, then headed to the Petersons with the Duces for Christmas dinner! Lovely day!!
Opening up her LeapFrog Phonics train! (We inherited this from her Uncle Blake!)
My dad gave me (and the rest of my siblings) a brick from the church building that burned down. He was able to salvage some and even finished it up after Christmas by putting a plate on top with the picture Dustin drew of it years ago. Such an awesome present!!
Kristie with her presents, all set up. This cracks me up. =)
Christmas pull-a-parts after rising and ready to bake!
After being baked and turned over...yummmmm...
