Christmas in Dixie!!

This year Christmas was with my family down in St. George, which made it Kevin's first Christmas with my family. Can I just say how much I love St. George and miss it with every fiber of my being??? Christmas was pretty low key and a good little vacation for us. Granted I spent most of my time sleeping, using a box and half of Kleenex's along with 3 of the travel packs and on cold meds. (Still trying to get rid of this cold two weeks later) We were lucky enough to spend some time with friends and lots of family time. Both of my brothers and their families were staying at my parents house too so it definitely was a full house with all 10 of us and one bathroom. But we all had things to do at different times of the day so we were rarely fighting for the bathroom. I'll admit there were days where I didn't shower til at least 4pm... Ya I love vacations and being lazy :) When I was sleeping off my cold we were visiting friends, having our classic "Williams Family Game Night" playing "The Game of Things." Eating dutch oven potatoes, watching football, picking up some "G Droppings" from a beloved High School Graphics teacher who was my favorite, and eating lots of Holiday Goodies. I lived up to my last post and actually have pictures to post! I also have to add that I took some from my sister in law Jessica and some from my parent's camera as well. We ended up with some great gifts and tripled our movie collection (which wasn't too hard) We're definitely looking forward to our favorite gifts: Williams Lake Powell trip in June and Larson Hawaii trip in July (If we can save up enough money for the plane tickets.) 

I had to get some pictures of good ol' Dixie on Christmas Eve with the rain clouds and everything. So gorgeous and WAY better than any white Christmas. Unless the white is sand on the beach. I want that for Christmas someday.

This was actually the best picture of the boys in their Christmas Eve PJ's...You don't want to see the others haha. 

Us girls in our PJ's...Of course we had to get a funny one too!

Here we are Christmas morning! It's tradition in my family to walk in and see what Santa brought with hot chocolate in your hand... some I won't name names put Mt. Dew in their mugs, but that's okay. 

These boys got a haul!

Their awesome superhero masks that their Aunt Jessica made.

This is a picture of my mom opening up her surprise gift. For our Christmas my parent's gave us all a family trip to Lake Powell on a house boat so we wanted to do something really special for my parents too. 

She's been wanting a Nook HD for a little while so that's what we got her!

Loved the surprise and we totally made her cry!

This is towards the end of the gift opening.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas spent with loved ones and are able to always remember our Savior, Jesus Christ and all that he did for us. That we shouldn't only celebrate his life during Christmas time but year round and always give service to others and remember Him.
