Christmas 2011

We had a great Christmas this year. We were so lucky to be able to spend it with our Brudnicki family. The kids love spending time with their aunt and uncles. They also love getting spoiled by them. :)

Because Christmas fell on Sunday this year, we did things a little differently. We decided to go to church all together to Grandma and Grandpa's ward because I needed to accompany a young woman singing in a different ward later that morning. (It sure was nice to have extra hands at church to pass off the wiggly kids to!) So we busted through the presents at our house in the morning before heading off to church. The big boys gave each other books that we had chosen at the school book fair a couple of months ago. They also got really fun books from Grandma Jensen. (Great to have to church that morning!)
 Grandma Jensen also made all the boys these super cute stuffed animals. Carson named his walrus "Tusk" and he and Tusk have been inseparable ever since. (If you look closely, you can also see his missing tooth that he lost the day before Christmas Eve. The Tooth Fairy forgot the first night, so she hitched a ride with Santa and wrote him a note to say sorry.)
After church we spent the rest of the day at Grandma Brudnicki's house, opening gifts, eating lots of food and hanging out together.
Jensen was super excited to get Cars 2 from Aunt Jennifer and Uncle Adam. We had to watch it that afternoon. They also got lots of fun games from them, and we've had a great time playing with them.
 I don't have all my pictures from Christmas yet, and that's because everyone else was taking pictures for me, since my camera got busted this past summer. Dustin decided to be sneaky and not give me my new camera until most of the photo-opt's were over. :)
Great holiday with our family. No one was sick, no one had any drama to deal with, and everyone was grateful for everything they received (kids and adults alike.) :)
