Looking forward to? A lot of things. Our 20 week appt. Our cruise. Getting started on the nursery!

Okay now crazy Christmas! We have three families we have to fit in on Christmas Eve and Christmas so it gets crazy! We do Jake's Family, My family, and Mark and Leslee. It was tough but well worth it! We started the Christmas Eve off at my in laws. With the MOST delicious dinner. Holy cow, I wish I had taken a picture. It was so amazing! Then we opened gifts from each other and from my In laws. We we're incredibly spoiled!

The highlights: 
Dinner
Playing games
My father in laws "Boston" inspired gift
Getting $200 bones. Ka-ching!
All the delish treats
Watching our Christmas Eve Tradition of Garfield's Christmas







Next was Mark and Les Christmas. They came over after we got home from my in laws to watch Ashton open Jammies. Then we exchanged gifts with them and they spoiled Ashton AND Boston rotten.
Highlights:
Ashton looking adorable in his Christmas Jammies
Buying Jake way too large of pajama bottoms (pregnancy brain)
Boston got a cute blankie
Gift Card to Texas Roadhouse






Christmas morning came. And normally we sleep over at my parents, but it was our first year in our new home and I wanted to do Santa at our house. It was so fun. We woke up Ashton at 7:30 (cause I could hardly contain myself) unfortunately he had a fever and wasn't too thrilled, but once he saw Santa's gift he was fine!
Highlights:
Ashton adoring his new play kitchen
My adorable Petunia Pickle Bottom Bag
Jake being shocked about his new Nike's
Being shocked that Jake bought me an adorable purse
Ashton loving opening presents this year
The gorgeous snow Christmas Morning






After our lovely morning we headed over to my parents for Ernie's Breakfast (one of my fav traditions) and more presents. This year like half the family was way sick. Ashton had a fever. My dad woke up with the flu, Me niece Gracie had this scary rash (she is now in the hospital trying to figure out why :( story for another time) then that night my brother in law started puking, and my other niece the next day! WOWZA! But seriously it was still one of the best Christmases ever!

Highlights:
Ernie's Breakfast Sandwiches
Ashton's Olaf Toy he is obsessed with
My adorable new booties
Boston's new shoes
My mom made me new scrapbook pages
Talking with Elder Schroeppel
