After a ton of fun in Cedar we got to St. George and never stopped having fun...EVER! We hit the ground running right when we got to Melissa's house. Grandma McRae had fun and games planned right when we walked in the door. It was so much fun to all be together!

| We had a couple days until Christmas so we did last minute shopping, the boys did their thing sometimes and the girls did their thing...a lot of eating and playing! It was a lot of fun! It was nice to build up the anticipation to our Christmas eve celebration... |
Christmas Eve we had a beautiful dinner at Megan's house (I need pics because the table decor was too die for!) And then we got in our jams and headed over to Melissa's where we would continue our festivities waiting for Santa to arrive!

We kept the tradition going and had all the kids put on the nativity for us...Braxton was the cow and Millie was an angel with the girls. It was so cute! You never know how the nativity will go down with all the kids but Millie sure stole the show with her fit throwing. haha She was exhausted and ready for bed. ha

Millie and Braxton loved the HUGE gorgeous mirror in Aunt Melissa's entry way...they got a lot of entertainment out of that!
That night we also opened the gifts that Grandma and papa spoiled them with! They got spoiled and loved every second of it! Millie kept saying more presents...haha I had to tell her that in the morning that Santa was bringing her more presents...she was a little satisfied ;)
Then after all of the presents...we had a surprise visitor from Santa's helper!! Each of the kids got to sit on his lap and tell them what they wanted for christmas and got a gift out of his bag! Too cute! Millie and Braxton loved it!
 |
| Ruthie and all the cousins were so good with Brax. He loved all the attention! |
 |
| We couldn't rest our heads without the great stocking march! Always a great time! |
 |
| Christmas Morning 2013 Santa came through! |
After little sleep...we still woke up pretty early (7:30ish) and made our way downstairs to see what Santa brought! Millie was a little tired but that didn't stop her from tearing open EVERY gift infront of her and even ended up opening some of Braxton's gifts haha
One gift didn't make it to St. George though because we were so far from home. So, Santa left the kids big present in Omaha and made sure he sent a picture and a note telling them that their gift was at home!

| went right for the crayons and coloring book ha |
After all the presents were open, we enjoyed the best breakfast and then of course the day couldn't have been more perfect so all the kids went outside and played with their new toys! That is the great thing about christmas in a warm climate...

We were seriously SO spoiled this Christmas...both the kids and the adults....and we are so blessed to have such amazing family!
Part three....
