Christmas 2009 in Idaho.....

Christmas is Idaho was a BLAST! I am extremely blessed to have amazing in-laws! Jordan's family are such great people and so fun to be around. We especially enjoyed the time that we got to spend with Jordan's youngest brother, Taysom who left on his mission to Australia in January. The girls had so much fun and they definitely LOVE Christmastime!!!!

A little glimpse of our time with The Hill's.............

Taylor got to go horseback riding with Grandpa Dougie - thanks for taking her! She was SO excited and still talks about it!

The girls did puzzles and played games with Grandma Bug!

We had lunch at Aunt Marcia's restaurant one day and it was delicious! She spoiled the girls with these little rubber duckies that the girls LOVED! They were a big hit the rest of the trip and made many trips into the hot tub with the girls!

We visited Aunt Celeste at work and again the girls were spoiled with treats - candy canes & little t-shirts! Thanks Cel - we love you!

Grandma Bug gave the girls a new nightlight that had animals running around. They loved it! I had to take a pic of Hayden's cute little bum!

The girls spending time with Jordan's Grandpa & Grandma Hill.

Taylor & Bentley enjoyed sitting by the fire and getting their backs "cozy warm"

The girls made rolls, cookies - you name it with their Grandma Bug

Hayden LOVED all the attention that she got & also getting to play with her sisters!

Hot Tubing - No joke we went in at least twice a day! This is our girls obsession!

Grandma & Grandpa were pretty BRAVE to take all three girls shopping with them one day so that Jordan & I could go on a date! WOW! So nice!

The girls opening a few presents before Christmas - obviously that comes with LOTS of emotions!

Christmas Eve - Driving to look at Christmas lights. Pocatello has a street that they call Santa Clause Lane & the lights are AMAZING!

Rudolph was a BIG part of our Christmas this year. The night that we had our Ward Christmas Party, Bentley was having a grumpy moment and I really wanted to take some pictures so I bribed her with a sucker on the way to the church. She didn't finish it by the time we arrived so I convinced her to leave it in the car and it would be waiting for her when we came back out. Well, at the end of the night when we were walking out to the car I figured Bentley would forget about the sucker - so it magically disappeared. When she climbed back into her seat the VERY first thing she says is, "WHERE'S MY SUCKER?!!?" Clever Jordan answered by saying, "I think Rudolph ate it!" I will never forget her face and even Taylor's face. They could NOT believe Rudolph would do that. So it has been a big deal ever since then. Bentley will even wake me up in the morning now and the first thing she says is, "Mom, Rudolph ate my sucker!" Funny kid! It's a tradition.......we have to leave suckers for Rudolph each year so that he won't get confused with the girls suckers.

The girls fast asleep dreaming Christmas morning dreams!
