Christmas MORNING

The kids were up bright and early and ready for all the

joy and anticipation that comes with Christmas morning.

**Christmas Morning for the Smith Family**

 Jantsen 

7 years old

Loved being with family

especially his cousin Parker

**Highlights**

Giving Grandma and Grandpa his

gift he made in school

**Favorite Gift**

Hex Bugs

from Grandma and Grandpa

**Special Memory**

Receiving Just Dance 3 Wii Game and telling Dad that the only reason

he asked for it was because he knew Mom would like it.

(I cried tears of joy and for being so lucky to have such a sweet boy)

Kambryn 

4 years old

Loved having Abby around to be girlie with

and hanging around Dustin and Jen

**Highlights** 

Getting out of her pajamas as soon as possible

to put on each dress she opened up.

(If her pajamas would have been a nightgown,

she probably would have stayed in it a little longer)

**Favorite Gift**

She has two. 

New pink Scooter

and Rapunzel and Tiana Dresses

**Special Memory**

Kambryn and Abby disappeared for awhile because they had

gone off together in their princess dresses and

played dolls in the library while we were all still opening presents.

 Talan

1 years old

Loved the attention from all the family

and trying to fit in with the older boy cousins

**Highlights**

Opening his Thomas the Train

pillow pet and being so excited.

He sat on it in the middle of the living room

and said "Choo Choo" during the whole

commotion of opening presents

**Favorite Gift**

Thomas the Train Pillow Pet

**Special Memory**

Picking up ALL the pieces

(big and small) of wrapping paper

behind the couch.

Grandma and Dad were laughing hysterically at him.

Bodie

2 months old
Loved being passed around
(he was never put down)

**Highlights**

Being held and loved on

the WHOLE time

by everyone

**Favorite Gift** 

He pretty much only got

clothes so that would

have to be his favorite gift

**Special Memory**

Bringing so much love and peace to

everyone. Having a newborn is

such an amazing blessing and gift

 

Other highlights**
*Getting a Treadmill from my parentsand Kyle. I bawled!
*My mom reading the Santa Letter
to the Grandkids.
She bawled and so did many of us
Then James had to finish reading it.
 *My mom opening her temple picture
from the Family.
She bawled and I bawled.
(it is funny how much bawling happens
at the Graham household on such
a wonderful day!)
 

Since Christmas was on a Sunday we

went to Sacrament meeting

together and were touched by

the spirit at a wonderful

program from the ward choir

and other members of my parent's ward.

Celebrating Christ's birth at church

was wonderful!
