I guess you could say that we really didn't "make" the cookies. All we did was take them out of the plastic wrap, place them on the pan and a few in our mouths (I love cookie dough) and toss them in the oven, and ta-da! Beautiful Christmas cookies for Santa's tummy!
Alright, I need your help. Cooper has been asking for a "Smelly, Smelly Lab," I am assuming it is like a scientist thing where you can make things. He saw it on a commercial on TV and I can't figure out where to get it. I have googled it and all. So if you have heard of it or see it on a commercial PLEASE let me know. Thank ya much!
We had such a great Christmas day. The kids were up about 7:00, before they could go downstairs we made them wait while we fed Peiton. They were so patient, but Cooper was so excited. It was so fun to see them open all their presents. Coop had oodles of Transformers to open, and Bode took his time opening each present and getting so excited over each one, even if it was a shirt. Collin spoiled me as usual, and hopefully he enjoyed his gifts...he said he did. We just spent the day laying around in our jammies, playing with toys, napping and of course eating. We had visits first from Grandma Holly, Grandpa Charlie, Court and Matt. Then later Grandpa and Grandma Bubba came to visit. It was so nice just to lounge all day long. About 4 we headed over to the Richards family and spent Christmas night with them. We had a awesome prime rib dinner, that maxed me out...I was finally full from all the food I had stuffed my face with over the last couple of days. After dinner we opened gifts and enjoyed each others company. We had such a great Christmas this year, everything went so smoothly and we loved to be with our loved ones. We really missed Grandma Johnson this year, and we are praying that she continues to get better. We love her so much, and we are so thankful for all she and Grandpa do for our family. We are so thankful for all our family and the fun times we have with them. We are so glad that we are able to spend such a fun holiday with all of them. Merry Christmas and we hope you all enjoyed your holiday as much as we did.
Christmas Eve was such a fun day. We started our Christmas Eve by driving to Heber for the Edwards Christmas party. Grandma and Pa had it at Soldier Hollow again this year. It works out really well there. My Uncle Rob cooks the amazing food for us. He does such a good job. We had so much to eat. He made Prime rib, super moist turkey, ham, dutch oven potatoes, veggies, and a variety of salads. Thanks Rob, the food was great, like always. We played a fun and wild game, the winners were Collin and Jeremy...go boys! And we had a special visitor, Santa was able to make it, even though he was soooo busy on Christmas Eve. The kids did a Nativity, and it was darling. Bode actually put on the shepard costume, and looked darling!! Collin's Christmas was made right there. The snow was coming down, so we were kind of anxious to get on the road. But, we had a fun time and look forward to seeing all of our cousins, aunts and uncles, and especially Grandma and Pa. Thanks so much for the fun time, and the great memories.
