December 2013: Christmas Eve & Christmas

This year Amy made reindeer pancakes. The kids really eat this stuff up.


This is our second year of going to Temple Square to see the lights and eat out on Christmas Eve. It's a great way to spend Christmas Eve and Kathie's birthday.








We had a really brilliant idea to give the kids "new rooms" for Christmas.  we got them new beds, bedding and bedroom furniture. We had an excuse to have them not sleeping in their rooms because we had just re-carpeted the upstairs a couple of days before hand. This gave us the chance to set everything up while they were asleep. Great plan. Amy and I went to bed around 5:00 a.m. The good news is the kids loved it. 

We put wrapping paper over the door-less entrances to the rooms.

They all were very happy. For anyone who doesn't know, Katelyn LOVES kitties.




... and Brandon is a big fan of Star Wars


Here are some shots unwrapping presents.
