Christmas Pictures (again)

(This is the post that I originally posted the day after Christmas. I'm re-posting it because I accidentally deleted my entire blog today!) Okay, so I'm not the best at keeping up with the blog but I mean well! Now that the holiday has come and gone and my life is a little more mellow, I'll make a post so I can show off some Christmas pics. We had a great day and got to stay home in our pajamas all day! It was so fun to have all of us together again and enjoy one another. We got up at about 8:00 (a record for late starts in our house) and were just getting ready to open presents when the Morrow Family called to tell Ashley that Jake was on the phone. So we put the presents on hold so Ashley could go over and talk to Jake. He is in England on a mission and this was his first Christmas in the mission field. Ashley and him dated for a couple of years before he left and they have kept writing. We'll see what happens when he comes home in 13 months! Anyway, when Ashley got home from Morrow's, we opened the presents. The kids got a Wii and lots of games to go with it. Kent surprised me with some beautiful opal earrings and a necklace that matches. I also got a new camera. At about noon we had brunch. Kent's parents came over and so did my brother Chris and his wife Ashley. Chris and Ashley spoiled the kids with a ton of new clothes from their favorite store - Aeropostale. (Ashley is the manager of the Pocatello store) After that we just sat around in our pajamas and watched movies and played games. It was the perfect day!
