Christmas:
We spent Christmas in Pocatello. We spent a couple of nights at my parents house and Christmas morning there as well. Than we spent some time a Jared's parents house.
Christmas Eve Jared and I helped Santa get all of the toys and presents set out. It was a lot of fun. I loved being able to help get it all ready to surprise little Raymie.
Christmas morning...Raymie didn't really understand what was going on still, but she really loved to open the presents. She can say "Santa"....so she's getting there. Raymie got spoiled to death and so did Jared and I. Haha my favorite was when Jared was so surprised by one present that he kinda just said "What?....no...no way.". haha my little teenage husband. We had a lot of candy in our stockings and one of the candies was pop rocks...we gave some to Raymie just to see what she would do. We were thinking she would freak out and spit them out...but no. She liked them and wanted more. She is such a little candy lover.
We than went over to the Hendricks' and opened our presents there. Jared got me a beautiful pearl ring...that I love so very much. I've always wanted one. Raymie got more toys and Jared got some clothes and stuff for his bike. It was a fun Christmas.
Iv'e always loved the way my dad treats Christmas. Every Christmas eve we read the book The Three Trees. We read it and than my dad talks about how we have what we have because of Christ and than bares his testimony. Before we open our presents on Christmas morning we say a prayer as well. The presents and toys are all fun, but we should never forget what it is all really about.

We dropped Raymie off with my parents and she partied there while we partied with some friends. It was a lot of fun. I can't believe it is already 2014. Weird.
It's kind of a semiannual thing to go to my parents cabin in Island Park. We go once in the winter and try to go again in the summer. We have a lot of fun doing it too.
We played a lot of games...yelled at each other.
We went sledding...Chelsey got her car stuck twice...the boys attacked each other while on sleds.
We drank hot chocolate, watched some sports, ate a ton of food, and played more games.
