Christmas in Idaho

When we got home from Las Vegas, Santa had presents waiting for the kids. They were so excited to see the cars and jumped right in. They drove them all over the living room.

We went to Grandma and Grandpa's one night for Christmas with the Fabbi's.

Maddox was happy to just be held and snuggled.

 The kids got spoiled with books, clothes and toys.

Christmas Day

Christmas morning started bright and early (much earlier than Grandma and Grandpa Lyman would have chosen). The kids were really excited to see their stockings on the couch.

 Mason and Morgan got some books, snacks, and movies in their stockings.

Maddox's stocking was full of snacks!

 Mason and Morgan got notes in their stockings from Santa Claus that told them that Santa left their presents at their home in Idaho.

 Cuddles got a laser light that shines all over the floor. Maddox was happy to

try and catch the light with Cuddles.

 Christmas afternoon we went to have dinner with the Kennedys.

Always so fun to see everyone and let the kids play.

Christmas Eve

One thing that we really wanted to take the kids to see while we were in Las Vegas was the Shark Reef. So on Christmas Eve, we got Leesa, Kelli, Dylan, Corey and MaryAnn to come with us.

Maddox was super excited!

 All the kiddos ready to go 

 The kids had a blast looking at all the different fish.

 Maddox got an up close look at the sharks.

 The shark reef even had Santa Claus that we could take a picture with and the kids got candy canes.

 After the shark reef, we went back to the Lyman's and Morgan helped make cookies for Santa Claus

 Later that night, we headed over to the Fabbi's for our traditional Christmas Eve. It 

is always so fun to see all the cousins. The kids had so much fun playing with all their cousins.

 We listened to the Christmas story from the bible and then sang Christmas songs.

 Once there was a snowman

 Maddox was the youngest so he got to open his present first.

 Can you tell Morgan loved hers by that smile??

 Grandma and Grandpa Fabbi know exactly what Mason loves.

After we got back to the Lyman's, the kids got to open a present.

 They were Christmas jammies of course.

 Putting out the cookies before bed!

Lyman family Nativity

While we were in Las Vegas, the Lyman grandkids acted out the nativity.

Mason was actually pretty cooperative this year and wore the shepherd's costume.

 Morgan was an angel and she was just a little bit cooperative.

 Maddox let Maddie carry him around like a good little baby Jesus.
