Christmas Celebrations




Nick and Meadow's family arrived at our home on Sunday, and we opened gifts and were entertained by the kiddos. Nicky sang us several renditions of Killers songs mixed in with snowman lyrics, replete with his own vibrato effects. Tressa led the singing from the top of the stairs and kept asking throughout the day when we could open the gifts. Her favorite was a porcelain Indian doll from Mom. We made a teepee for it out of tissue paper and kabob skewers. Hyrum was elated about a shirt I gave him, which was a surprise for me. What kids like getting clothes? He couldn't get it on fast enough, and it ended up upside-down with the collar at his waist, but he was still happy! Meadow made gorgeous, intricate paper flowers to decorate the packages. I think mine and Corey's favorite gift was a coupon from Mike good for house cleaning and dish doing- awesome!
Hyrum and Adam Jack getting into treats in the pantry- the one thing they can share! Most of the time, they did not get along well. Doesn't Hyrum look like Gabie here?

Adam Jack was 90% asleep, but insisted that Missy finish feeding him his Cocoa Puffs- so hilarious!

Adam Jack's stylish 'do.
