A Wii Ice Cream Party!!

Here is all the yummy things we had to make our sundaes!

We all had such a fun time. When we gonna do it again??

The Nutcracker

We absolutly loved the Nutcracker Ballet. It was such an exciting night! We went out to dinner and then headed to Phoenix. It was so fun being with just Heidi. She is such a funny girl.

Symphony Hall is such a beautiful place! Here we are waiting to go inside.

Heidi and me. It was going to start very soon. . . .

The Nutcracker had been amazing! I loved it, Heidi loved it, and even James liked it! It was soo much fun to share the moment with Heidi. I knew she was so excited and loved every minute of it. We shared all our favorite parts afterwards. It was such a beautiful night.

And even though it is soo cold outside we had to get icecream afterwards. Yum Yum!!

Twilight Again!!

It was so very fun to see Alicia again! She came home for a week for Christmas break and I wished it could have lasted a lot longer!! We hung out one evening which was perfect just talking and laughing! Then we got the crazy idea to go see Twilight again! Actually it wasn't very crazy at all it was perfect! It was both our third time and we LOVE it still! Can't wait until it comes out on DVD. This is definatly a movie we share equal love for! It was late, and we were so cold and exausted, but we loved it!! Cassie came too which made it even better! We had such a fun time!
Alicia, I can't wait to see you again! Luv ya you amazing girl!

Christmas Day

I know it is sooo past Christmas. But I just haven't had time to post this, but I have to put these pics on! It was such a great, beautiful day. We enjoyed it way too much!!

James opening his stocking. Stockings have to be first!

Me with my stocking. I made a long list for James of things I would like for Christmas. I wanted to make it long so I would be surprised with what he got me. Well one of the things was shower gel. My stocking was FULL of shower gel. He is such a crazy boy.

After stockings is presents!!James spoiled me so much! One of the gifts he got me was a wii! We have been having so, so, so much fun with this. We love the Wii!My inlaws gave me a very fun game for the wii. I wasn't allowed to open it the night before for obvious reasons!!I tried to make James wait as long as I could to open his big present. So he opened some other gifts, one was his favorite tv show, Psych season 2. He was so excited and has almost finished watching all the episodes.I finally let him start. He was so excited. I took a ton of pics!He just figured it out!!
Oh, so this is why I couldn't figure out what it was. Each club was wrapped and taped up with bubble wrap! He he he!

He enjoyed unwrapping each one. It was so fun to watch. I wish I could have videoed it!

He can't wait to try them out!
James bought me this beautiful shirt. He picked it out all by himself!


After we set up the wii and played a little. We went over to my parents house for Christmas morning. Here is my mom opening her present from James and I. Isn't she so cute?!

Here is my dad with his ASU tie that we gave him. He has been wanting one for years!

Hope and Heidi

Dad and Holli

(I didn't have any pics of Heather :( but one that she was making the silliest face in~which I think she did on purspose so I wouldn't put it on the blog!! Silly girl, I will get you!!!....)
My sisters and I exchange gifts in a rotation. So we only buy one gift. This year James and I had Heidi. We bought her a ticket to see the Nutcracker Ballet. She has been asking me to take her for years. I was so excited to give her this gift. Pictures to come soon...
Here is Heidi doing a funny pose next to James and my present from my parents! We had no idea what it could be.

Doesn't it look great! It doesn't crowd our house at all and we LOVE our new chest freezer. It is such an amazing gift! My parents are so smart. We needed one so bad!
After presents we all just lounge around and relax enjoying the day. James spent 2 HOURS cleaning and polishing his new clubs! He is such a clean freak! It was so cute to watch him. I bought him a golf club cleaning kit that had 3 little brushes, 3 solutions, and a sponge. He loved that just as much as his clubs.

He's still going at it!

Here is James with "My" present! :)

We have both enjoyed the wii a lot!!

Christmas Eve Night! Part 2

After Moore Christmas Eve we go over and have Bitter Christmas Eve with the Bitters! They have a family tradition where they open presents right at Midnight. So we went over and got to relax and wait until it was finally midnight. It was so nice to see Amanda and Andrew again. They were in town for a week during the Christmas holiday. Lily was allready asleep so we had to wait to see her. We sat around and read Luke 2 and sang Christmas songs. Then a few people finished wrapping presents. And we just relaxed waiting for midnight to come. Finally for the 2 who are still living at home they went into their bedrooms while "santa" came! And FINALLY we were allowed to wake up Lily Maye! Isn't she adorable!

Oh and open presents too!

Yep, that is basiclly all we did was hold Lilly. But she was soon kind of ticked that we woke her up and was not impressed with presents, or wraping paper, or ribbon. Poor thing!

Everyone had a very nice Christmas!
Mariah opening a present.

Maureen opening our gift we got her. She Loooved it!

James even came up with this one. He is getting pretty smart!

Amanda and Andrew (I think Andrew was just as tired as Lily) :)

We were having too much fun I didn't get that many pics. I will have to remember next year!!!
Thank you everyone! What a great start to a very very Merry Christmas!
