Christmas Day

On Christmas morning we actually had to wake up the kids around 8:00. I think they were exhausted from the day before in SLC. We had church at 10:00 so we decided to open our stockings and get ready for church. Then after church we opened presents and had breakfast.

Tyler is the one at the bottom of the stairs trying to wake up.

Ellie and Brayden are checking out what Santa put in their stockings.

Brayden was excited to get new Reebok Zigs for Christmas.
He also got a new mitt and his own personal DVD player.

Here is Ellie posing with her new Barbie. She was excited about all her new toys.

Tyler got most of his stuff before Christmas- his ski pass and coat and snowboard pants. He was excited about his new googles and mittens for snowboarding. Grandma Linda got him a cool running watch that he can use to train for the marathon in May.

The kids all got new Boise sweatshirts from Grandma and Grandpa Clark. They were way excited about them.

Here is dad just relaxing.

Grandma opening her new photo calendar we got her.

We gave Grandpa a new flashlight and a Lowe's gift card.

Finally at the end of the day here is what Ellie's room looked like-quite a disaster. But we had a great day together. We were able to relax and enjoy each other's company. My parents were in Arizona for Christmas but we got to see them a couple of days later as they traveled through back to Montana.
