Just your typical post about Christmas. But mine has some cute pictures!

I've been thinking it's about time I post about Christmas and all the fun we have had. So here it goes as simply as possible otherwise we will all be here for a while!

Daniel got the whole week off of work so we got some sweet fun in.

Monday:
  • We fed the missionaries lunch. Luckily they called to remind us and luckily Dan had started cooking lots of meat! 
  • Went sledding out in Blackfoot with the Swendsens and some other families from the branch.


it doesn't look like it but he did smile and have fun!

what a chunk!
Tuesday:
  • Just relaxed most the day watching movies and munching
  • yeah.. that's really all that happened.. 
  • opened our christmas jammies! We all matched this year! haha Sean's were a little short... that's what I get for making them 2 months before Christmas.

  • chewing on the M&M's that came with the PJ's. There was also a movie that we watched!


    Family picture! The only one with Sean looking!
    Wednesday:
    • Got up around 7:30 (when Sean woke up) and chilled in bed for a while and then went upstairs to open stockings
    • opened presents
    • Ate breakfast: hashbrowns, eggs, bacon and an orange julius! YUM YUM YUM!
    • played with Sean and his new toys and had a fun photo shoot! (those will be at the end of the blog!)
    • went over to Low's and played some games took some photos and watched some movies till 1:30 in the morning! :)

    playing with the wrapping paper!

    his minion toque and new fancy toy that he loves!

    what a Ham!
    Thursday:
    • took our time getting out the door to do some boxing day shopping (all we got was a DVD player.)
    • headed out to Wetaskiwin to meet up with Dan's brother and wife and his parentals.
    Friday:

    • Went into Edmonton and did some sweet shopping there at IKEA (my new favorite place!)
    • Hung out with his family some more. got some good visiting and game playing in
    Saturday:
    • The reason for the whole trip to Wetaskiwin the baby blessing! It was nice that it was early in the day because then we were able to head back at Sean's naptime and he slept! Traveling is so nice when he sleeps!
    It doesn't sound like much but it was a fun week of "holidaying". I enjoyed just having the three of us and not worrying about spending time between families and all the stress of going down south brings. It was fun to share it with MY family and spend time with the awesome friends we have made up here! I'm so glad we just stayed home this year! It was quiet, relaxing and well worth doing again! (though next year Sean will be more mobile... and present savvy so it'll be even BETTER!)

    Christmas Photo fun!








    and tomorrow?

    New Years Eve! It's going to be a BLAST! :)
