This was the first year we spent Christmas morning at our own home with our little family. It was wonderful! We had so much fun picking out gifts for Clara and Rex. Rex was a little under the weather on Christmas morning and didn't enjoy opening gifts. Clara made up for it with her enthusiasm.
 |
| For several weeks Clara asked for a tuba for Christmas. As it happens, there aren't really any toy tubas out there. She was very happy with this instead. She built and rebuilt horns for her and Rex to play. |
 |
| Rex got some little pull back cars like the ones he loves to play with in nursery. |
 |
| A ballerina Barbie! |
 |
| Rex got a new drill and toy truck. |
 |
| Clara got a scooter and Rex got a little Radio Flyer Scoot 'n Zoom. They've both spent hours outside and inside playing with them. |
 |
| Ben always picks out wonderful gifts for me. Among the treasures this year, was this little beauty. I always joked when we were driving in our minivan that I needed one of these to grab everything the kids drop. Voila! I've already used it a bunch. |
 |
| A new blanket for Rex. |
 |
| Clara picked out some Mickey Mouse toys to give to Rex. |
 |
| I'm not sure what present he was opening, but I love Ben's face. I'm guessing it was his Nike Fuel Band. |
 |
| Clara got a doctor's kit & needed a lab coat, so Ben let her wear one of his white shirts. Also of note is Rex--this is how he spent the entire morning--sitting/leaning on Ben. |
After our morning together we headed back to West Jordan to open gifts with our family there. It was a wonderful Christmas holiday. I'm so thankful to celebrate the birth of our Savior with those I love most.
 |
| We teamed up with the Huffs to give Connie & Richard a picture of the Manti temple. |
That afternoon, while Rex took a nap, Ben took Clara sledding with cousins just down the street. She had a blast. Ben said she was fearless.
