This year we got lucky and our families have done all of the holidays on separate days so we were able to be a part of all the fun. The day before Christmas eve, there is a tradition in Keith's family that Santa comes while you are asleep and counts the noses of everyone who has been good and marks your nose with soot from the chimney, so that he knows who to bring presents to. So we woke up to all of our noses counted. I guess we have been good this year, yay!!
We did Christmas Eve mostly with just our own little family making yummy candy and chocolate popcorn.(thanks for the recipe miss) and then drove down later that night so we would be there for the morning fun! Then we did Christmas Day with my family and went to Alvin and the Chipmunks (the squeakual) which Carsen loved... he wouldn't take his eyes off the screen! Then we did all of Keith's family Christmas the day after. It really made the season so nice and relaxed this year.
We have so much to be grateful for this season and are so thankful for the gospel and our Heavenly Father in our lives.
We are so thankful for our families and would not be where we are today without them. Thank you all for a wonderful Christmas season. It couldn't have been better!
Here are a few pictures of Carsen's first Christmas....so much fun!!! Love you sweet boy!

Carsen is so cute! Sounds like a fun tradition the one about Santa's counting noses :)
Carson is getting so big! They grow up so fast enjoy every moment that you can. Oh and by the way he's a cutie! Well I hope that you are doing well.
That's a cute tradition about the marking the nose. Of coarse Carsen was a good boy last year!
What a big boy, love him!!
