CHRISTMAS

 Christmas morning came. And guess what? It was like 8:00 when the kids got up and we had to wake up some of the kids. It was a Christmas miracle. 

Stockings:

Opening Presents:

All of Jaxon's presents are in Arizona. So I wrapped weird things. This might be Spam. 

Razor to shave his facial hair off.

 Science thing

Can't remember what this is

Utah tie! (Do you see Jaxon? He started feeling sick about this time)

 The boys got "treasure boxes". I wanted to do some kind of shadow boxes to put their scout awards in to display. Then I thought about it. They would not display them. That is not really a thing. So I got these boxes so they could keep all of their awards in a nice place and any other awards. If they want to display them later, They can make a shadow box.

 Chase has his cub scout awards. And I have a system to give him awards for each of his "Strive to Be" goals that he accomplishes. They are tie pins that are churchy and not churchy themes.

 New pillows. Alex was really excited about this.

Tennis rackets

Jaxon got a banana. 

Hale Center Theatre tickets. They like this a lot.

Jaxon was really sick at this point.

Scavenger Hunt: 

They had a small box for their big present. It was a clue...

They had to find more clues...

This clue was on their dad.

They found it! It was a big box

Full of little boxes.

Most of the boxes were empty. Some of them had little pieces of paper for clues.

 The pictures were not very helpful.

Tanner did guess going to Disneyland- but he wasn't sure if he was right.

Then they got these signs...

With all of the school activities, we can't go until April. But that will be awesome. 

Jaxon was really sick during this hunt and missed the fun of it. He slept most of the day away.

The rest of the day was spent hanging out and being lazy and doing new games and things.

Traditional Christmas pictures

Then it was Christmas Dinner. Yum!

Christmas Cracker hats

 This is a tradition from England.

Then we got to play games with Joey!

Bed time. Day over.
