Christmas Eve and Christmas were busy for our family. We started a new Christmas Eve tradition and made tamales for dinner. Michael was busy all day with the preparations. Yum!
The evening of Christmas Eve Jessica watched the new Christmas movie Prep and Landing (ABC - it's too funny) with her Uncle Jon, we went to the temple visitors center and listened to a presentation about the Savior, made cookies for Santa, and read the Christmas story.
We finished off Christmas Eve by opening our PJs from Grandma and Papa Hales - Thanks! Who doesn't LOVE getting new pajamas?!
Christmas morning began with the stockings. Jessica had a ridiculous haul just from that. It's too easy to find fun things for that girl. Chandler was thrilled with his new binkies. :)
Opening the rest of the presents...
The favorite toy of the day had to be Chandler's remote control airplane from G&G Hales. Jessica also loved making a crazy amount of noise on her new recorder. Don't you just love her face in the bottom left picture? That is pure Jessica. :)
And in case we missed you, here was our Christmas card for the year. Merry Christmas!
P.S. If you didn't receive a card from us in the mail feel free to send me an email (laurageese@gmail.com) with your address for next year. There's a good chance I didn't have an up to date address for you.

I love your scrapbook pages!
Those are some adorable pages! Looks like you had a good Christmas.
It looks like you had a successful Christmas! :) The kids are growing so quickly! Thank you for sending the card, too. We loved it! Molly was SO EXCITED.
Tamales?? Where did you grow up -- Northern Mexico? I mean, Southern California?
Aren't you glad Michael is not afraid to get in the kitchen. I love it when Gary cooks.
Thanks for the Christmas Card - They turned out SO cute! Glad you guys had a wonderful Christmas. :)
