Christmas continued . . .


Let the fun begin
December 26, 2012


Day 3 of Christmas at our house. We
finally get to open our gifts from mom
and dad.










        
 Kylah

Repunzel my favorite



I love to do hair.




Kylah was so cute. She would open clothes and say "I really wanted this" She would get a big grin and giggle with every toy she opened.









                    Parker





Parker and his "big" gift. He was excited to get his very own Green Machine. Unfortunately it was snowing and he couldnt use it.




                      Katlyn


Katlyn is very much into Hunger Games and was excited to get the movie. She also got an ipod docking station with dvd player.




        Kalli





Nook
Kalli's gift was double wrapped so she couldn't figure out what it was. Her friend Paige was shopping with her mom and me when I bought it. I was a little concerned that she would be told what it was. True to her word, Paige kept the secret. Kalli loves to read and this was the perfect gift for her.



   


               Aaron

Aaron asked for a tablet of some sort. He got a Kindle Fire and promises to share with his wife.

Christmas at the Fire Station (Station 82; South Ogden)

Santa brought . . .
 
 
 
Furbies

We spent most of the day hanging out at the fire station with our dad. We fed our furbies with Katlyn's ipod. We fed it things like popsicles, toilet paper, dirty socks and hot sauce. It was fun to see what the fuby would spit back, such as popsicle sticks, toilet paper roll and throw up. EWW!! We opened more family gifts, played games and watched Santa Claus 2. Grandma and Grandpa Mortensen stopped by to see what we got. We had tuna sandwiches for lunch. We then went to Grandma and Grandpa Green's house. Grandma made ham dinner. We watched our new TinkerBell movie. Leanne, David, Kadence and Shelby stopped by while we were there.

Grandma and Grandpa Mortensen's

 We had a party at Grandma and Grandpa's house. We had homemade root beer, chicken salad sandwiches and lots of other yummy things. We opened gifts from our family exchange and some surprise gifts from grandma and grandpa. We got a nice poem mounted on granite, a wood stool (just like grandma's) and Grandpa's testimony.

Misc

Parker looses another tooth. He was so excited it was loose and made Aaron pull it. The back roots were not quite ready. Aaron asked him if he wanted him to stop and he said no so Aaron pulled it. What a gross sound that was. End result - very excited boy.











Kylah is super silly

David gets his masters

I am so proud of my brother in law, David. He completed his masters degree. Kylah and I went to all of the graduation day festivities. We went to the "hooding", commencement, refreshments at Leanne's and dinner at El Matador. Kylah was sick and slept in my arms most of the day.
