Christmas 2010 in Glance

It was a Merry Merry Christmas!

The Night before Christmas....

We had a Super Duper Christmas Eve!

*

We started off the day having a yummy breakfast at my Grandma Bowden's. It was fun to see her so happy with all of her family around.

*

Then Jason and I did our last minute scrambling. Jason loves to leave a little shopping until the last day.

*

Then we went Ice Skating with the Clark's.

We pretty much had the whole rink to ourselves and we loved it.

This little girl sat on the sidelines with me and her Grandpa and ate suckers.

*

She screamed every time I stepped on to the ice to skate.

Eventually we just took her out in her shoes and let her run around.

Grandma Clark was a trooper and skated with all the kids.

These two were skating partners. Lucy was amazing for her first time.

*

She didn't even complain about the huge blisters she had on her feet until the very end.

Once she got a walker she could cruise all by herself.

Then we headed over to Bret and Nicole's for the yummiest dinner.

Jenny, is your tooth okay after your braces were stuck in Max's head?

Emilee, Christmas Eve is not a good night to try WWF.

Sporting their cute hats from Grandma.

Thank You Clarks! We love spending the Holidays with you!!!!

Then we opened our Christmas pj's from our Grandma and Grandpa Miller.

The kids LOVE this tradition!

*

Then we headed for home and had our own little Christmas story around the tree with the kids.

*

Each kid got to open up one present. (All except for Max, he opted to wait until the morning.)

And then we hurried to bed and tried the best we could to sleep.

Temple Square

I always love to go and see the beautiful lights up at Temple Square.

We watched Mr. Kruger's Christmas and spent a fun Christmasy night together.

The Salt Lake Temple will always be my favorite. After all, it is where I married my handsome husband and became Mrs. Jason Miller.

*

And because of this beautiful temple, I get to spend forever with my 6 favorite people!!!

Polar Express

As each year passes, I am more and more grateful to have little one's to keep the magic of Christmas alive!

*

The Polar Express ride to the North Pole is one of our highlights of the year.

Jayne is still saying "A choo choo, Ho Ho!"

And we were shocked that she jumped right up on his lap with a smile.

*

The beautiful pictures of Christ always brings the spirit of Christmas!

" I wanna cell phone and some clothes."

"I want a Kellen Moore jersey."

"I wanna keyboard."

"I want an American doll baby."

"A baby, A baba"

I love this time of year!!
