Merry Christmas 2013

On Christmas morning, the boys finally woke up around 9 a.m.  Bryce and I were awake and waiting for them to get up.  They were so excited when we told them Santa had come to our house.  They ran downstairs to find their individuals piles of presents.

Clayton got a bean bag, a race track, and a bow and arrow.  I think he has more fun opening the presents than actually playing with them.  Cooper got a really nice camera and a CD player for his room.  We all received beef jerky in our stockings.  Bryce received a nice hunting jacket, a Block Target, and a Quiver for his bow.  He got me some new shoes, a pink BB gun and a target.  He also bought me new brakes for my squeaky car!

After we had Cinnamon rolls for breakfast, we got packed up and headed up to Cache Valley to visit our families there.  We stopped at Grandma and Grandpa Coopers for a few minutes.  They seemed to be doing well.  WE all contributed to get them a space heater for their living room. They are always freezing, so they seemed to like this present.  They made all of their great grand kids blankets for Christmas.  All year they worked on these 22 blankets.  What a treasure for all the kids to have something hand made from their great grand parents!

We met at the Douglas' on Christmas Day for lunch.  The kids all had so much fun playing with each other.  We played Five Crowns with Mom and Dad and Sara and Derek.  It was nice to see everyone and visit before they all took off to see other families.  Afterwards, we went out to Brandon and Jill's home for a couple of hours to see what they got for Christmas and to look at their new home.
