*Christmas*

Chris and I on Christmas Eve (Don't mind my cute ugly sweater in these pictures. I was cold and it's Christmas!)

We spent Christmas Eve and Day at my parent's house with the Navarro's and Williamson's. Chris and I got a butt-load of presents! We did NOT expect to get so much! Everyone was reeally generous and that made our little Christmas really nice. On Christmas Eve, we all went caroling and deliver treats to neighbors, had a great dinner, acted out the nativity (Chris was not the donkey this year), and open up our sibling presents. Then Christmas morning, Chris and I sang in the ward choir and I sang "Mary's Lullaby" in a sextet. Then we rushed home and opened our presents. Thanks to both Chris's parents and my parent's, who supplied us with tons of fun little stocking stuffers, we had a lot more to open then expected. Then we cleaned the apartment! That was my idea really but still was fun. That afternoon we met back up at my parent's house and continued the festivities! Overall, we had an amazing time with my Mom, Dad, Evie, Johnnie, Benjamin, Kiersten, Jonathan, Kendra, Ryan, and Nikki. Great Christmas full of great Christmas memories!

 Also, Just wanted to thank Evie and Johnnie for creating that wonderful Crandall Christmas DVD. It was really nice to look back and share those memories with Chris and the rest of the family. We really cherished that gift. And thanks Benjamin and Kiersten for getting Bentley kitty toys! He really loves them and it meant a lot to us that you thought about him. Kendra and Ryan, we're so excited that you're married now! We're so glad to have Ryan in our family. Nate, Jess, Reese, and Finn, wish you could have been here! We miss you and hope to someday spend a Christmas with you :)
