This Christmas was AMAZING. All my family was here. This may sound cheesy but what could be a better gift? Being an aunt is the best because these kiddos are crack-ups. absolutely hilarious. i love just sitting back and watching their excitement and their unique personalities. I also loved having siblings here just to chat with. I didn't get a whole lot of just chatting in for the past few months down in Utah.
I got some pretty grand gifts for Christmas and everything i asked Santa for. i'll be the coolest aunt around with my barbie convertible he brought me;)
Carson also made me a calender and the sweetest snowman card which i'll probably keep forever. I love our family tradition of handmade gifts for our family exchange. Everything i made was inspired by pinterest, i would be lost without it. Another tradition that is simple but i love is sticking small presents in the tree. I don't know of many other families that do that so i'd consider it one of our traditions.
Our dinner was...unique. My dad and the guys went and shot a turkey, with a bow and arrow, gutted and cleaned it, smoked it, then we ate it. You know you live in Idaho when your dad hunts Christmas eve for your Christmas dinner. I'm sure we had the freshest meat around! He also smoked deer and pheasant. I'll just stick to turkey please. The rest of the dinner was delish! and i had the funnest time decorating the table. I tried a new napkin folding technique that i also found on pinterest. It's a Christmas tree!
Christmas 2012 was lovely <3
