I hope you all had a Merry Christmas! Last night was fun because Jayce enjoyed the Christmas story. I bought a book showing the biblical as well as the Book of Mormon account of the Savior's birth, and Jayce was quite mesmerized. I hope he "got it." This morning the kids had fun discovering new toys. Jer and I went overboard and vow to do better next year -- we must simplify! Jeremy had a great idea and suggested we order Christmas dinner from Smith's Grocery. Yesterday we picked up the turkey and all the fixins' and merely had to put them in the oven. The meal was delicious and hassle-free. I think it's our new tradition. While our celebration was on the simple side, we had a nice day spending time together.

Sleepy . . . but having fun.
Jayce and Alyssa playing in their pop-up school bus tent.
I was trying to show Alyssa playing with her new ball popper, but once she saw the camera she had no interest in the toy. However, she got sidetracked by the cell phone, and unbeknownst to me, ended up calling Jer's boss. Oops!
Alyssa loves the ABC song -- she's rocking out to Jayce's LeapFrog fridge magnet toy (she escaped from my grasp as I was trying to get her pants on). Later on this poor girl developed a high fever and was miserable the rest of the night. Her Christmas joy was short-lived.

WoohOo for Christmas!! (We all got colds on Christmas too...) Glad you had a wonderful holiday though.
Fun, Fun, Fun! Glad you had a fun morning! Hope she feels better soon! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Merry Christmas! It looks like a very fun day! We all seem to buy too much but that is part of the fun! I vow to be done in October next year so I can enjoy this time of year too! So sorry about the sick baby! I hope she is better soon.
We have the leap frog letters and that ball popper too - they are big hits at our house :)
Looks like lots of fun! Every year I say I'm going to simplify, still hasn't happened.
