Christmas Post #2

After a fun-filled evening with Morian's family, we came back to our apartment and spent the night. And when Devin woke up (Morian and I actually woke up before he did!) we had our very own "Christmas morning" festivities. We opened to presents from each other before heading up to my parents house. Devin's first present was a pair of snow pants, but we made the mistake of letting him open the gift from our Bishop first, which was filled with sweets. Devin would not let go of the bag of fudge, even to open his present, so he did it all with one hand. It was quite funny to watch!
Out comes the tissue paper
Maybe holding it upside down will help it come out!
And finally the snow pants! Doesn't he just look so excited?!
Here's Devin getting ready to open a present from Mom and Dad
Morian with his gifts from me and Devin- the DVD "3 Amigos" and a BYU beanie
Me with my present from Morian- candy and a mini SD memory card for my phone
So we spent most of Christmas Day up at my parents house, opening presents and playing games and just hanging out. All of my siblings and in-laws and two grandsons were there, so it was a crazy-full house, but so much fun! And next year there will be another little guy running around!
Devin is all sorts of ready to ready presents!
This is my sister-in-law, Lena. She is expecting their first child due in March. My brother is a bit of a nerd. He's the one who gave her the shirt.
Does he remind you of anyone in these boots and the way he is standing?
(Can we say Napoleon Dynamite?! Hilarious!)
Devin figured it was easier to open the presents if someone else held it for him!
Here Grandma helped Devin open another present
In the evening we went over to my grandparents house for dinner and a white elephant gift exchange. That was pretty entertaining as always! At least we came away with something good! A little toy for Devin and a bag of gummy bears! Woohoo!
I hope everyone else had a good holiday weekend and aren't too sleep-deprived! We used Saturday as a major catch-up on sleep day! Thank goodness for that!
(And hey, I finally made it to 100 posts! Wowzers!)
