Christmas 2011 was fantastic. It was special and a little schedule-challenging to have it on Sunday. There is NO-where I'd rather be on Christmas than partaking of the sacrament and showing my outward devotion to Jesus Christ. As wonderful as it was to take an hour out of the day, it did feel really non-stop.
Christmas Schedule:
7 a.m. wake-up Christmas morning at our house
8:30- Leave our house dressed for Church, presents, food and changes of clothes in tow
9:00- Christmas morning breakfast/opening gifts with immediate Gonzalez family
10:30- Leave for Church
11:00- Church
12:30- Lunch and opening presents with immediate Felt family
2:00- 2nd Lunch, opening gifts and penny auction with the Roger's (my mom's extended family) family
5:00- Dinner at the Smith's (Rob's extended family)
8:00- Drive home and get kids in bed
It is a wonderfully packed day. My only problem with the day is our little children wanted to play with their new toys at home and there was NO time to do that. We made up for it on Monday and spent the entire day at home in our jammies.
There are more pictures to come, I just have to upload them first.
Jackson's favorite Christmas memory: playing with his light sabers and legos
Parker's favorite Christmas memory: playing with his little tikes car and action figures, Buzz, Woody and Bullseye (they were escorted around in the car's drink holders)
Meggan's favorite Christmas memory: seeing the look on the children's faces when they opened their presents
Rob's favorite Christmas memory: playing with his Nook and reading a book for a change, and having the entire week to relax between Christmas and New Years.
