Christmas with the Linnells

After we hit up the Browns house, we head to the Linnells to continue the Christmas festivities. We open presents first here, and then we dine. We have turkey and ham sandwiches, lots of salads, dip and chips, jellos, and dessert. This year Karinne made super cute Reindeer cookies and "present" cookies!

Grandma and Grandpa got a globe that spins around and is solar powered

Warning: Baby Owen is shown a lot in this post because he is always the star of the show.

He got a T Ball set from Melanie, because she was his "secret cousin"

I really like this present that Ashlee made for Trent and Megan. They both cheer for different teams, but she united them!

Melanie got an owl hat from Megan that she loves! Melanie had an "owl" christmas. She got owl pajamas, owl necklace, keychain, and hat!

Kyle got an iTunes gift card

My mom got a way cute necklace from Karinne

I think Dannys present took the show. Dallan had him and gave a mug that says "Hello Beautiful" on it with a mirror so that you can see yourself!

Bryson got me ESSENTIAL stuff that I need at school. You'd be suprised how many clips and combs get away from you....

Owen and his favorite Aunt Karinne in his super cute elmo jammas, he also had matching elmo slippers!

Staring contest with Kyle....

Owen and his mommy! I would also like it noted for the record that Owen can now say my name. I have it on video to prove it! I just am slightly technology challenged and don't know how to post videos to this quite yet. I also got a Christmas Miracle from him, he actually sat on my lap and played with me for an extended period of time! Even if there was bribing with "Elmo's world" on my phone thanks to youtube... I still got Owen Lovings!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL! HOPE IT WAS A GOOD ONE!

Christmas at the Browns

We head to the Browns first on Christmas where we have breakfast complete with omlets, cinnamin rolls, toast, hashbrowns, fruit, and much much more.

This is my Uncle Scott, Jeff, Brandon, and Josh. They were all exhausted from their busy Christmas mornings filled with church and excitement.

Delicious goodies

Jeff, Melanie, Jen, and E... I know she got a puffy vest from the Brown's... but I can't remember what she got from my Grannie and Grandpa.

Jeff and Kyle both got a Utah body pillow. Grannie and Grandpa helped Santa out with Jeff's iPad. Kyle got a gaming chair from them, but he wouldn't hold still long enough for me to get a good picture of him in it.

My Grannie :)

My Grandpa

Me Familia

I got a mini fridge! And, I would like you all to know that I was able to carry it up out of my car to my bedroom, being extra careful on my windy stairs. I am woman, hear me roar!

My cute mom.

Family Pictures

Christmas Morning

After Santa came and woke us up with her joyous singing, we headed down to the Christmas tree to start the present opening.

Jeff got an iPad

Melanie got an iPod touch

Even though this picture is blurry, it shows Kyle's personality to the T. Kyle got an iPhone

All of my moms present opening is on a video, but she got a bronze Joseph Smith Statue from us kids

Molly making her debut in her Christmas sweater again

Santa always leaves Molly a special treat as well. She holds still in pictures that I'm not trying to take of her, but then wont hold still when I DO try to take a picture featuring herself.
Santa graced me with a Nook from Barnes and Noble this Christmas. I absolutely am in love with it. I have already read 3 books on it, and I am enthralled by all of it's fancy features.

Is that you Santa?

My mom got dressed up as Santa this year on Christmas Day! To wake us up, she walked around singing Santa songs!
