christmas 2010

Told you I'd do it...

1. Decorating gingerbread houses

(Claire definitely ate more candy than she put on her house,

and then ate all her candy off of her house the next day,

while porter made sure no one touched his!)

2. Temple Square with

Grandma and Grandpa Maughan

3. Aunt Lilly's house

(Porter loved being with his older cousin, who actually

does play football...Ethan was patient and good while Porter was learning.

This was Mark's DREAM)

4. Hanging with cousins

5. Sunday Before Christmas

(Just for fun...Claire in the same dress that Lillly wore for Christmas)

6. Twister

(pretty fun to watch with little kids!)

7. Bowling

8. Adult Gingerbread houses

So Lilly and I did our house together (which was for sure the best right??) :)

but some weird neighbors chose Jennifer's house (with the black roof)

just kidding, they were all cute. So sad I don't have a picture of Jill's house...it was CRAZY :)

9. LEGOLAND

10. LEGOLAND

yes we went twice while we were there. Christmas eve (which was CRAZY BUSY)

and new years day (which was like the park all to ourselves!)

11. Gift Exchange

thanks mom and dad for a great tradition

(love that picture of my parents!!)

12. Christmas morning

Mark went crazy with the BYU gear for the kids (glasses, shirts, sippy cups, wall hangings, magnets...etc)

Porter got his Nintendo DS

Claire got her bike

and I got my IPAD

thank you SANTA

one of my favorite gifts..to myself :)

I want one every year, so I hope the girl is still making them ten years from now!

13. Papa Patton

we love him something terrible!

14. The beach

yes, in January...kind of wish this was my every weekend!

15. Mission Beach

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL....
