Christmas Day

This Christmas was great. Mark and I really felt the true meaning of Christmas. We were able to help a family in need and it was fun to see them happy on Christmas. Mark and I have been trying to start some of our own traditions, so on Christmas Eve I got the Cragun stockings put together there is a picture of them. I don't know of any other family that does stockings like this but they sure are fun. We latter took gifts around to some neighbors. We stopped at one of our friends house in the ward and ended up staying there and helping them with Christmas for their kids. It sounds weird but we had a blast. We latter went home and went to bed. I woke up early and put our presents out. We didn't get much but that was okay. I cleaned the house and we got ready for the day. We opened presents and then had hot chocolate together. We then went to Marks Moms house for breakfast. It was kind of funny because when I had talked to her at the family party earlier that week we were to only ones coming and she had said that it will be nice to just make breakfast for just four. Then when I showed up there were tables up and there were about 18 people there for breakfast. Everyone Loves Genies Christmas morning breakfast. Then latter that day we went to my parents and just hung out all day. It was wonderful. Jessica's kids played in the snow, so they were in and out all day. Everyone just seemed to be having a lot of fun. We really had a great day. Here are some pictures of the day. Oh, Mark surprised me with an Ipod. Yea, just what I wanted. I even got Sam some Christmas presents.
