Christmas Vacation

I just realized that I did not take any pictures on Christmas day. I also didn't take any pictures the days following. I am such a slacker.

We spent Christmas Eve at our house waiting for Dayson to get home from work. He was on assignment to Flagstaff and didn't return until 9:30 PM. We waited patiently for him to arrive so the kids could open their traditional Christmas Eve gift....pajamas from mom and dad. The kids finally went to sleep around 11:00 and I went to bed around Midnight. The kids woke us up around 5 am and we opened presents. We left town about 10 am to go to Mesa to see Dayson's family. After spending a few hours there we went to Avondale to see my family. We spent the next few days in the valley and went to the Lawlor Christmas party. We drove home Friday afternoon so that Dayson could check back on for work. 

New Year's Eve was also a slow boring day for us. I didn't plan much of a party. Clayton and Carson went to the New Year's Eve dance and we picked them up at 12:30 am. Then went to bed!

New Year's day we took our kids sledding for about 30 minutes. It was cold! As soon as our hands were frozen we headed back to the car and went home.

The rest of our Christmas vacation I worked and the kids just stayed home. 

I can't wait for it to be normal again!

I took this picture from my sister in law....this is Dayson's family minus his sister DeLona.
