Christmas Eve, Day, New Years, etc.


Andrew & Becca's beautiful Christmas tree....


MaryAnn making lots of cinnamon rolls! Becca making delicious tortellini for our Christmas Eve dinner...


Nani ( MaryAnn) had two cute assistants - they were helping pat and roll out the dough.


Poppa reading Christmas stories to his fan club....


acting out the nativity....


Kids in their Christmas Eve jammies! Thanks, Parsons! All the grown ups had matching jammies too! Quattro and Annie's are the same different colors.


We had to wake Quattro up Christmas morning cause we were so excited! We opened presents at our house before going over to A&B's to meet up with everyone else....


I got Rob that awesome shoulder holster which he immediately put on and wears every chance he gets now. Quattro loved his little workbench and tools from The Magic Cabin. I only wrapped one thing - the rest was just there ready to be played with. His face was in a little bit of shock when we brought him out - it was so cute!


He LOVES this kitchen that Lindsay got him!!! We stayed up trying to put it together for hours but didn't finish it all the way. He didn't care! He loved it!


One of his favorite things about Christmas morning? All the "DANDY!" everywhere!


Robert trying on Rob's holster....


Enjoying an awesome Christmas breakfast! We had MaryAnn's cinnamon rolls (YUM! I ate at least 3....mmmm), eggs, sausage....


Reading the BYU Football History book - which Robby sees and asks to read all the time and he really will sit down and read it for like 10 minutes... the obsession continues...


Quattro got some awesome new shoes from Spencer. He opened the box and immediately started trying to put them on.


And this truck is awesome! He can sit on it and shuffle around!


Getting to hold baby Kate! Those are the girls jammies I'm modeling for you...


Playing with my new awesome camera Rob got me.... I'm excited to learn how to be a better photographer!!


Photo shoot with Aunt Ness! Robby is still asking for you Ness!!


New Years Eve - We had an early dinner at Chef's Table with Robert & MaryAnn, Amy & Nathan, A&B, and Daniel. It was a nice fancy place where they put the napkin on your lap for you... Little Andrew (who's not so little anymore!) watched all the kids for us adults during dinner! Then we came home and hung out with the kids and partied a little bit. The ringing in of the new year was a little anticlimatic but at least we had some martinellis and watched some fireworks going off at a neighbor's!


And I got kissed by the cutest boy ever! Woo woo!

Happy New Year everyone!
