Christmas

Well, it came and went by so fast! Christmas Eve was spent mostly at my mom's. We hung out with Matt, Mansi, and Brianna and eventually made our way over to Brad and Julie's jacuzzi. It was a cold drive home, but so worth it! 

We definitely had a smaller Christmas this year, but to see that Jackson was still SO excited about every detail was so fun. He kept running over to show things to Tommie and wanted to talk about everything he got. It was cute because he would tell everyone that he "had too many things" from Santa, he couldn't remember! :) Ha! If only that were true! 

We stopped by my family's for a bit where everyone was meeting for breakfast, but then we headed out to Gilbert and spent the rest of the day with Becca and Nate's families. Nate had gotten new chickens and that was sure a hit with the kids until their new shirts started to get pooped on. 

Eventually, we made our way back to Mesa and stopped by my Grandma and Grandpa Anderson's. Gram Cracker had made a bunch of food, which we ate most of, and we enjoyed just being there with them. 

All in all, it was a great day and I felt so lucky to have the whole day with my boys, be here by all our family, and to just be happy. :) 

Grandma Andersen gave a huge shell from the dominican republic. Jackson loves how you can hear the "river" in it. At least, that's what he tells people...

Can you imagine being so excited for Spongebob underwear that you wear it everywhere?? He doesn't even watch Spongebob, but his cousins do...

All the cousins loved his stomp rockets. 

Look at that face. I am loving his grown up smiles lately.
