Christmas Picture Overload!


Playing Guitar Hero with Daddy at Grandma Sonja's. This girl can really jam.

Making Christmas cookies with all her darling cousins at Grandma Sonja's house.


I didn't see her eat any of the cookies....


But she pounded the frosting and M&M's...


Making dinner with Grandma Carolyn.

What Christmas is complete without an Elmo?


Cammers fell in love with my brothers dog, Lucki.


Pplaying the piano with Great Grandma Myrna. Camri loved playing the piano with her. They were quite the duet.


Camri and Kyle, just before colliding.


On this trip I fell in love all over again with my darling little niece, Sophie. Here we are at her birthday party. She is so stinking cute!






Reading with Papa

Here she is calling Papa from the kitchen.

Camri and Papa read books together for hours on this trip. She loved every minute of it!


Presents from Papa!





Camri playing with the school bus her Great Grandma Donna gave her.






Camri and her Darling cousin Sofie.

Camri loves Fisher Price Little People! Thanks Grandma Sonja!

Steve opening presents


Camri got a cute Disney Princess jacket from Grandma Sonja.


Halfway through opening presents the Kyle and Camri disappeared, and I found them in Grandma Sonja's closet playing on the floor having the time of thier lives.



Daddy and Camri



Camri and her cousin Kyle had so much fun playing together this trip! They are only a couple months apart in age and they loved eachother!



Camri and Kyle on their Roadies. Man they had fun with those things!


Uncle Brandon and Aunt Nessa made her this darling fleece blanket featuring her favorite Sesame Stree Charicters. needless to say, she LOVES it! She insists on sleeping with it every night.



Thanks Uncle B and Nessa!




Camri got a ton of books for Christmas this year, and this one has been her favorite so far.




Cam and Grandma Carolyn.




This year we decided to put up our Charlie Brown Christmas tree and other Christmas decor despite the fact that we were going home for the holidays. When we got back we had our own little Christmas. Here is Camri tearing up her first present.



There are a million blocks in this bag. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought them! She loves dumping them out more than playing with them. Ugh.


By the time we got home to have our own little family Christmas, Camri was a pro at opening presents.

After a few (million) presents, Camri needed some help staying focused. She kept asking me to open every present she got so she could play with it the minute she opened it.



I never thought I would be happy to get a vacuume cleaner for a Christmas present... But I was! No more crumbs in my car! ( Ya, right!) And I got an I pod armband for my new Nano! Finally, I can listen to music while at the gym! Thanks Hunny!
We had such an awesome Christmas this year. I know that being with all our family really helped bring the meaning of Christmas into our hearts. Steve and I were able to visit the Salt Lake Temple, which is very near and dear to our hearts since that is where we were sealed almost two years ago. Sitting in those rooms with my husband made me thankful for our family, and of course, the gospel. Thanks to everyone who made this Christmas amazing. We love you all. Hope you all have a great new year.
