Merry Christmas 2009

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. Our Christmas was wonderful. Tyler woke up at 4:30 am and would have been ready to go if we'd let him, but instead he climb into bed with us and enjoyed sleeping until about 7:30 am. Clinton then called his parents to come over and while we waited Tyler opened his first Christmas package on Christmas Day from Mom and Dad, some Transformer air crafts. Once Grandma and Grandpa got here we headed down stairs where all the presents awaited us. As soon as he made it down stairs he saw the letter Santa wrote him on his new doodle board he opened last night from his grandparents. He was so excited and then moved onto Santa's presents (Bumblebee helmet and gun, snowshoes, and a word game). After playing for a little bit we then opened all the other presents from Mom, Dad and Aunt Lindy. He got a dual light saber, star wars Lego's, Super Structs, and clothes. Daddy (a.k.a Clinton) opened a nail gun with compressor and mini Makita cordless screw driver set. Grandma and Grandpa opened their calendar. I think everyone was very happy.











After opening presents we headed over to grandma and grandpa Monson's for the traditional breakfast (ham waffles). We visited with those who came Mikey, Kendra, Ellie, Karin, Ashlee, Alicia, Savannah and Kayden. Tyler mostly followed Kayden around playing guns. Karin was sweet to get us all First Aid kits, so we will be better prepared when we have rafting accidents or slam a finger with a cooler :). Clinton then opened one more present, a huge tool bag, where Tyler would secretly hide to scare others, or go for a ride around the house.

We headed back home for yet another party, where Grandpa and Grandma Harding, Sierra, Justin and the Farnsworth family came to celebrate and open more presents. We all were spoiled rotten. Tyler opened his first present from Justin, which was a hunting coat and he was thrilled about it. Then Tyler, Kinsey and Jordan opened a mini keyboard from sierra and all gave her a big hug. After which he opened a marshmellow gun, and Power Rangers from his cousins. Next Tyler opened present after present from Grandpa and Grandma until he was done and Jordan still had many more presents to open, it was pretty funny how each kid enjoys Christmas differently. Tyler opened Optimas Prime Transformer, clothes, legos, glitter ball, water bottle, and a building set. Clinton and I recieved a Patio Heater, Knife set (Yippee), Belgain waffle maker, and gift cards to restraunts. So yes we had a very very good Christmas. Randy and Nicole got RockBand 2for the Wii, so we all played and made fools of ourselves, it was a blast. I feel so blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life, family, friends, and co-workers. After everyone left, we ended the evening late with watching a new movie Tyler had in his stocking "Willow". After the movie Tyler went to bed around 10:30/11:00 and we said prayers remembering our greatest gift our Savior Jesus Christ. It was a perfect ending to a perfect day!
