THE EVE OF CHRISTMAS

There is no better way to say "Merry Christmas" than with a finger up the nose. Classic.

Santa and Chloe
(ps he is asking her what the buger-man is going to bring her for Christmas)

Obviously I'm finally getting around to some of the holiday posts that you have all been "dying" for (by "dying" I mean "don't really care about"). Let's get started shall we? Christmas Eve started with the alarm at 5am and me wanting to punch (not really) Clayton for making us get up and run. Seriously!?! 5AM. On Christmas EVE??? He said that I would thank him later...which I did. After we got cleaned up, made our Christmas Eve party assignments, we watched a Christmas Movie on Hallmark. If you know me you know I am a sucker for corn. The Hallmark Channel is all about the corn and is geared towards saps like myself. Pretty sure I still have some movies DVR'd on there as we speak. Anyway later we headed to Tremonton for the McMurdie Christmas party where this gentlemen in red and white honored us with his presence. We all know that Christmas Eve is a very busy time for him, so it was really kind of him to grace us with his presence.

Brady (no he's really not drunk this is just the best picture we got) and Santa

After a little program and a delicious meal where I couldn't resist the desserts (once again THANK YOU Clayton for making me get up and run) we headed for the Andrew Christmas party.


Ahhh...the happy on Christmas Eve.

Ahhh...another cute couple.

At the Andrew Party we ate MORE food (thank you again Clayton...I hate it when he is right), read the Christmas Story from the Bible, gave our gifts to Jesus, opened Grandma Andrew's gifts, and were serenaded by the concert pianist Kace Jones.

All concert pianists MUST bow at the end.

Then we headed home and anxiously awaited for Santa's arrival...

Stay tuned...
