Christmas

We started the morning at about 8 am. As you can see Owen wasn't quite awake. He said it was too bright.




Stephen was about the same way. We woke him up so that we could get going.


Owen was so excited! I didn't quite capture his reaction good on camera.

Stephen got the Dark Knight (Great movie!)

Oh, the precious iPod. Stephen was very excited


The boys all made out really good. Owen got his race track and helicopter that he asked Santa for, plus a few more items that we was excited about. Dallin got a skate deck and a new bike, plus a really big NERF gun called the Vulcan. Dart wars are a major part of our household. Stephen got all the U of U stuff a boy could ever ask for, plus the iPod. My dad gave both Stephen and Dallin signed U of U flags by the whole football team. They were pretty stoked.


After we opened our presents we made our rounds to the rest of the family. We also go over to Shane's mom's house for breakfast. She always makes apple fritters. They are soooo delicious. We hung out there for a few hours and then made our way to my parents. By the time we got there everyone took naps and eat more food. We snacked on the leftovers from our Christmas Eve dinner. YUM!


Next stop was to meet the boys mom in Centerville, so they could spend some time with her and get their Christmas. They will be gone the rest of the weekend and probably will be going snowboarding. Shane, Owen and I were hungry and didn't really have anywhere else to go so we drove into Layton to see if any place was opened for dinner. It was slim pickens, but we found a place, CHINA Hill on Hill Field Road. We thought we would go for duck, Hahaha (A Christmas Story salute) Here are some pics from our dinner,








Hot and sour soup

Pot stickers


Asparagus, chicken, beef and shrimp dish (It was very tasty!)


Overall, it was a great day! We all got to hang out and share each other company. We don't always get to do that. It was especially nice that it snowed. It always makes it seem like Christmas when it snows. Got to love that! Hope that everyone had a very Merry Christmas!
