Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas this year with the Ogdens.

Things didn't go quite as planned in some ways - Jordan's dad got really sick with a 24 hour stomach bug from christmas eve until the afternoon of christmas day, and their

sink got stopped up on christmas eve night so we couldn't use it for the rest of the weekend.

But it still was wonderful being together.

I think that is the main thing about the holidays - you want to be with those you love.

And that was true for us.

The stockings were hung (and filled)

my mom had made each one of the kids these PRECIOUS stockings

she hand stitches each little piece onto them, it is a work of art - and something

we will treasure always!

the boys woke up to this fun pirate ship and car ramp

they love it

please notice the pants :)

my sweet little campbell isabella

we headed over to chase & staci's for lunch

we were going to have it at the ogden's but because of the pluming situation we thought it would be better to have it over at their house.

staci was gracious to host us all!

here she is with campbell

alice got these adorable place mats at target and then had them monogrammed

with their names on it.

i think they are precious!
