Christmas

I know this is a little late, but I wanted to post about Christmas this year. Rian was so much fun :) She now loves Santa since he brought her all those toys and even thanks Heavenly Father for him every night when we say our bedtime prayers.....how cute is that!! Although she should be thanking Grandma Lois for the presents instead :)

We started a little family tradition this year. I decided that we would let Rian open two presents from us on Christmas Eve; a pair of jammies and a Christmas book. She absolutely loved the book because it was a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Christmas book and she loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, so it was perfect! But her reaction the the jammies were the best. They were actually hand-me-downs from my sister and Rian has worn them several times before I decided to wrap them for this new tradition. But she was still so happy to receive them as a gift, so funny!

We baked some cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve. But we didn't have any carrots so we left out green peppers for his reindeer instead. As you can see, the goodies were gone in the morning! We video taped the gift opening Christmas morning, so we don't have any pics of that. But she loves all her gifts , and we had a wonderful day, just the three of us.
