one of my absolute favorite days of the year.
last night we had a wonderful christmas eve party at the ferrins. lots of delicious food! grandma leavitts homemade tamales, chimichangas, nachos, and grandma leavitts delicious carmels. we had a very entertaining talent show that included all of the kids singing or playing the piano. they are too cute. i wish i got some pictures! then of course, we had the gift exchange which is always a plus :)
this morning we woke up at 6:30..am. earlier than maddix! mostly for brigham. he could not wait to have me open up my gifts that he got me {and he was secretly..or not secretly..excited for his ipod touch that santa got him}
lets just say that i got spoiled again this year.. i must have been a good girl :)
brig got an ipod touch, church socks & athletic socks {since ALL of his have holes in them}, of course some new bball shorts, itunes gift card from brother in law, and money.
i got a flip video camera, an amazing nice cream jacket, gorgeous miss me jeans {picked out by brigham himself..impressive!}, money from family, forever 21 gift card from brother in law, an automatic ice cream/sorbet/frozen yogurt maker from my g-ma, and a bread maker from my madre & padre! :)
maddix got shoes and jeans, baseball and elmo toy from tate, money from grandparents, and pushing toy from grandma. he was not even interested in the wrapping paper! he was actually scared of it…
we went to breakfast at the weights and then visited family at the porters.
wonderful day!
i am so grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ. i know that he lives and loves us so much. i hope that we can all make Him the center of our lives and work on following his amazing example a little more this coming year.

ReplyDeleteHey Shelby, random question, but where did you get your christmas cards? They are super cute!!
ReplyDeletethanks! my sister in law does them on etsy. her business is called sweet pea baby designs. check them out! they are all sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteHey Shelby. Your little boy is so cute! His eyes are so beautiful. Thank you for your comment. Do you think your friend would mind if I contacted her and asked her some questions? We really don't know what to do about Blake and I would love to talk to her about how she decided to take her son off gluten. Thanks Shelby.
