Early Christmas

We had our own little family Christmas the Sunday before since we were leaving for New Mexico. No way was a dragging all the presents down there just to drag them back up! Saturday night we did our Christmas Eve traditions (singing carols, reading scriptures, opening jammies from grandma, and opening one present). Then Sunday we headed to church, had a nap, and then had Christmas! Here's some highlights:

Eden's cute Christmas dress.

This is where Eden spent Christmas. I can't wait till next year, she will be much more fun.

A pachyderm from Grandma and Grandpa Flanagan...she loves this one.

Eden got Daddy some Little People. Haha. That's what I used to do as a kid.
Yes! I really wanted this and the normal Worldwide Ward Cookbook and I got both! We definitely have some new things to try.

I got Russell this Sandra Boynton Alphabet book because he likes alphabet books since he is a linguist. In the book A if for Angry Aardvark, which is why he is making the face.

A baby carrier! Now we can go some places without the stroller!

And...best of all, a telephoto lens! Here's to zooming 300 meters!

I wish you would've told me about the carrier. I have that exact one and have only used it once. You could've saved some money. Oh well. Also- can we say RECIPES?!?!?! I am interested in getting some of the good ones from you.

I love Sandra Boynton books (Barnyard Dance) is my favorite so far. I didn't know about the alphabet one though.
