Christmas 1.0

Eric and I had a wonderful first Christmas married this year! Friday night we drove up late from Salt Lake to Star Valley. It was pretty darn cold when we arrived there at 1am. It was a wopping -8 degrees. Snow was on the ground, and it was a clear night, meaning you could see every star in the galaxy pretty much! We stayed up and hung out with the fam till about 3am, and then finally hit the sack.

Christmas Eve day, was spent mostly lounging out in our jammies, snacking on lots of yummy treats, and playing our new wii we bought ourselves for christmas!!!! That night we had manicotti for dinner and it was DELICIOUS. Then some of our family friends, Raliegh and Sharyl, came over and we opened 1 gift each, as tradition dictates. :)

Oh man, we were soooooo tired, check out those bags under my eyes hahah

Ralrigh and Sharyl!

 We all got christmas jams, so we all put them on and then played 1 hardcore game of cranium, boys vs. girls. Us girls made an awesome come back and almost won. It came down to the last question and the boys got an easy one, so they won, yes I'm a little bitter about that. hahahaha

Christmas morning, we all slept in, went to chruch, and then came home and opened presents!!!!! We were extremely spoiled this year!!!

Watching Brooklyn open up gifts was so fun!!! Can't believe she is 2!!! I remember when Eric and I were first dating back in 2009, going to see and hold her in the hospital!!! CRAZY!

"Will Cook for Shoes" Perfect Apron for a Shopaholic! bahahaha

Caeliie, Maddie, and Kamdyn made it over for presents too!!!

Gifts we got, well there is a huge list but these are a few I can think of off the top of my head: Chi hair straightener, fossil purse, electric juicer, a wii and lots of games and accessories, the hale family cookbook, a lot of money and gift cards to best buy, a gorgeous monogrammed glass framed to hang on the wall, clothes, fishing gear for eric, head lamp, camping stuff, golfing stuff, candy galore, and more and more and more!!!!!!! :) We had to come home late last night to get Eric back for work in time today, but all in all, it was an AMAZING official first Christmas with the love of my life! Can't wait for all the other christmases to come!!!
