Merry Christmas! (by Jenn)

We had a great holiday season, and it still isn't over for us!

A few days before Christmas, we were all over at my parents house. My Mom decided that we could all open one present. So Noah and Cameron each opened one (Cameron got some awesome bath toys and Noah got a tool set). Kaytie, Steve, Rian and I got to open a present that was for us together. We each got a Wii! It was so awesome. We already have stayed up to late playing MarioKart with each other online. It is a blast and an awesome early Christmas present!

On the 23rd, Rian, Cameron and I opened the presents that we got for each other. It was really the only time for us to be together as a family, so we opened our gifts. I got two new Tiffany charms for my bracelet that say "Mom" and "I Love You". Rian got a necklace with our names engraved on them, and Cameron got some really cool wooden toys.

On Christmas Eve, we headed down to Canon to have Christmas with Rian's family. We had an awesome dinner, went to church and came home to open presents. It was a great night, and the next morning, Santa Cameron woke up his uncle. It was pretty funny!

That morning, we headed back home to Denver to spend the rest of Christmas with my family. We opened a LOT more presents, and then my Aunt and Uncle and cousins came over. We again had an awesome meal, that I ate too much of, and then couldn't eat any dessert. We also put together a bunch of Cameron and Noah's toys so that we could play with them all day. I gave Cam and Noah a really cool tee pee that took Rian and I forever to put together, but it is really cool.

Cameron got more presents than we have room under the tree. So next week we are going to work on finding room for all of his presents.

Tonight we are going back up to Canon to celebrate Christmas again with Rian's family. His sister had to work on Christmas (she is a doctor in Omaha), so she is now in town with her husband. We are going to have a small Christmas again tonight and tomorrow stay in Canon to celebrate New Year's Eve with them for the first time! Usually Rian and I are at my mom and dad's, or like last year, we played Guitar Hero all night at home.

So far, it has been a great holiday season, and I feel so blessed that I get to share it with Rian and my sweet baby, who to me, is a Christmas miracle.
