Holly and Jolly

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!  We knew our Christmas would be great even before it began with the news that Brett would have Christmas day off of work!  Hooray!!  It just so happened that his ONE day off happened to fall on Christmas Day!  Imagine the luck!  He had to work Christmas Eve and the day after, but we felt so blessed to have him home for Christmas morning.

Christmas Eve we celebrated the birth of Christ by enjoying the beautiful light displays and an amazing vocal performance at the Mesa Temple.
Weston was ENTHRALLED with all the bright lights!  He was not so thrilled with the cold weather, however.
After enjoying the lights, we went to my parents and busted out the original Nintendo for some riotous boys vs. girls games of Wheel of Fortune! Yes, my parents do still own the old school system, and yes it still works!
Christmas morning we woke to find that Santa had indeed found us in Mesa. :)  He had even brought Weston his very own stocking!  (Thanks so much to his Great-grandma Mardell for the super cute stocking.)
Weston didn't really seem to care.  He slept through ALL of Christmas morning and woke just in time for the last two presents to be opened.  In the mean time, we all had fun acting like little kids - shaking and opening each others' presents.
Weston woke up just in time to try on his new fur ugg boots.  I think he likes them. :)
Christmas night we took advantage of the brand new law and shot off some fireworks for the first time EVER in Arizona.
We had a great day and can't wait till next year when our little boy will be a little more interested. :)  Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year!
