Christmas 08

This years Christmas started off GREAT! We headed down to Salt Lake on Tuesday right after work and went over to my Aunt Becky's for my family's Christmas party. It was so much fun! I love my family, they are so relaxed and so easy to just be yourself around.
Here is my cousin Theresa with her youngest Olivia.
Jonny just lovin it up to the party!

Someone brought this 'grab' thing, and my uncle Grieg kept trying to 'grab' James Craig. He did not think it was too funny, but all of us sure did.
Time for White Elephant Exchange! There actually wasn't too many 'exchanging' this year. Everyone pretty much got what they wanted when they picked their present. Too bad, we were all hoping for some funny fights.
Delan got my soup mug! I think I am going to go get me one of those, soup sounds so yummy on these cold days.
Aunt Becky got some rated R present, the mystery is still out who gave that one!
Aunt Jill opening hers...
Of course my Aunt Jan has to look over the presents first.
She must have picked right, because her present fit her PERFECT!
And the BEST WRAPPED PRESENT AWARD goes too... the Burger King bag!

Jonny picked the purse bag present, and what do you expect would be in it? Of course lotions! He should have gone for the Burger King bag... I think I got the BEST of all! I picked the big white box that had 'D.I' written on the top of it. Inside was a complete set of china! Sweet! I love it too!
Jonny got these awesome slippers from Jill.

I told Evelyne to smile with her new dress up chest- this is what I got! I love this little girl. I have so many pictures of this face when asked to smile!
This one is for Kristie! WOOT WOOT!
Christmas Eve lunch- Costa Vida! We love that place! I was shocked when Jonny ordered right after me 2 burritos! And even more shocked when he almost ate both of them. He quit after 1 and 1/2. Christmas this year was a little different. We decided to stay at a Bed and Breakfast over Christmas. We stayed at Castle Creek Inn, and it was beautiful! We arrived Wednesday at 4pm, and stayed thru Friday morning. When we got there they upgraded our room for FREE. Love that! And so glad we choose the upgraded room it was so nice!
So this was our original room.
It actually had this knight in it, Jonny thought that was pretty cool!

And we upgraded to this! It was soo nice to just relax and have a 'Will-Farrell-a-thon'! Yep, you read right, thats what we did, watched the best of all the Will Farrell movies. When Jonny first told me that's what he wanted to do, I thought he was crazy. But I forgot of hilarious that guy is!
Our room also had this cozy fireplace!
Our 'hotel' Christmas tree for 2008!
Saturday night we headed over to Savannah's for game night. We miss all our friends so much out here in Logan! So it was so nice seeing them!
Here is cute Brad and Liz!
Jonny and Craig! It was kinda a surprise to see him there! Haven't seen him in forever.
The parents to be! Nope Kristie has not had her baby yet! (dang it!)
And here is proof! I just love this girl so much! And can't wait for that baby to pop out! I got to spend all day with Kristie while Jonny went snowboarding with his AWESOME sister Janell who is down for CO. It was so much fun putting all her baby things away!

Kristie's Baby Shower

Baby shower time! And that means Kristie is that much closer to invite Bailee Renee into the world! She had an open house at her grandma's yesterday and it was so fun! I wish I lived closer and got to see all these people all the time- I miss them so much!
Jonny and I got her this sweet swing/bouncer. The seat comes off and it's a bouncer- how cool is that! Here Kristie is with her step daughter Anika.
Kristie just waiting to open her presents!
Kristie and Des
Angie and her little girl Kailee
Present time!

(another of Kailee and Angie- so cute!)




Here is Kailee, Nora, and Nora's granddaughter Alexia. Kristie and I used to work with Nora at the Day Care and were so glad that she was able to come!
My aunt Jill gave Kristie this bear, and it was the hot item of all the little kids.
Even big sis Anika got a little something! I love that!
It was her own little baby to take care of!

Dad to be
... she better get used to holding diapers!

Mike's mom made 11 or 12 of these amazing blankets!
And MADE this amazing diaper bag. Uumm I think I am going to have Mike adopt me in his family so I can have one when I am expecting.

Kristie's Birthday present- a new 'mom' coat! A new mom has got to be stylin!
Delan with Kristie
B.F.F.!!!
I just can't wait for that phone call 'going to the hospital!'. Jonny and I will be in our car speeding down the highway down to Salt Lake! Last night I went over to Kristie's house and helped her 'organize' all her baby things and get her room ready for the baby. It was so much fun to be able to spend time together and help her feel ready. I love you Kristie and unborn Bailee Renee! Can't wait to meet you! We are now 'officially' ready for you to come!
