{Merry Christmas}

Every Christmas our kids have had to be woken up. Each year I have done it. I use to wake up at 4am and wait until 5am to wake up Jeron and the kids. This year I told the kids I am no longer going to wake them up. I haven't been getting good sleep so I knew now was my chance. Jeron and I rolled into bed this morning around 2am. We had just settled down for a long winter's nap,When out on in the living room there arose such a clatter,I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. It was 4am and our children were up ready to go. Jeron told them to get in our bed and NO ONE was going to get up until 6am. I want you to imagine laying in our bed with two very EXCITED kids. I got kicked, poked, and bugged for the next one and a half hours. I begged Jeron at 5:30 to just let us get up. We got up read Luke 2 and then lined up in order of youngest to oldest. I really wondered if Santa had even had the time to come only having a very small window from 2am-4am, but sure as the sun rises he had come. The kids had such a wonderful morning opening presents.






After we opened our last present we got ready for the day and headed over to Mama and Papa's house for some more Christmas fun. The kids got spoiled as usual by grandparents and Aunts and Uncles. All the kids got there very first UTAH sweatshirts from Mama and Papa. Yipee! We were lucky enough to have Uncle Carl there as well. It was so much fun. We ate our usual Christmas morning breakfast with the addition of Orange rolls...YUMMY! We played the Wii which Mama got. I will have to say though that Jeron and I got totally spoiled. My parents got us a super nice camera as an investment in our children. I was almost as excited as when I got my barbie house. Thanks Mom and Dad. I love spending time with my family. We played cards and had a great time together.






After we left the Meads' we headed down to Grandma Jan and Grandpa Gene's house. We ate a wonderful dinner opened even more present and hung out. the kids got spoiled by grandparents and aunts and uncles again. We all did. The kids all got exactly what they wanted. How do the Grandparents know just what to get them? It really was a nice night. We were sad when we had to leave early due to the scary weather outside. I can't end this post by letting everyone know that we had not one but TWO engagements in the Snow family on Christmas. Jeff proposed to Tara, and Megan is engaged. I know little Megan...it is crazy in a good way. Congrats to all of you.
