Christmas and New Years 2011

We had a very enjoyable Christmas and New Years this year, except for the fact that everyone got sick!!!!! It all started with Darin and Cameron on Christmas Eve, slowly moved to Dallin during the week, and then struck Luke and I just in time for New Years.

On Christmas Eve after doing our family nativity, we decided to leave Santa a note with the customary cookie plate. Dallin wanted us to write "ABCD!" and something about the "Lord of church." Cameron wanted to write, "Thank you Santa." So cute!

The excitement of Christmas morning helped Darin and Cameron to forget about their colds for a few hours. They really enjoyed opening presents and trying out their Christmas treats. All of the sugary treats came back to haunt us during the one hour of church...

New Years was a little less exciting, but we did get some "champagne" (sparkling pear juice) and all had a toast. We didn't quite stay up until midnight, but that was mostly because of the sicknesses floating around.
