Beeler Family Christmas

It is hard to believe it has been twelve days since I last posted! Time has just gotten away from me. This past weekend we were up in Payson for the big family get-together on Justin's Dad's side, and then a smaller Christmas celebration with Justin's parents and two of his siblings and their families (we missed you terribly Ra-ra!). We all had a wonderful time and it was great to reconnect with everyone!


Lauren recited a short book that she has memorized, "Christmas in the Manger" for a skit after lunch. She did a great job - Mommy was very surprised that she was willing to perform in front of so many people!!! Papa Jody and Mommy were misty-eyed before it was all said and done.



Daddy getting a Paige snuggle.


Lauren showing off this year's Angel ornament from Grandma Nel.


Paige was happy to unwrap presents this year, the only downside was she wanted everything out of the box right away. Seriously, why do they have to use two dozen zip-ties to keep kid's toys in the box?!?


Lauren and Camryn showing off their matching Frenchy dogs from Aunt Ra-Ra. Frenchy is the dog from Fancy Nancy and Lauren LOVES her. We have read "The Posh Puppy" at least 100 times. Needless to say, Frenchy is a big hit and has slept with Lauren every night since!


Uncle Shawn and Paige having a little bonding time. (C'mon, I had to play around with Photoshop a LITTLE this week!) ;o)

The day after Christmas we are headed to Vegas for the weekend and when we return we will be off to play in the snow with some friends, so I will have a lot to share when we are finally home again! Have a very merry Christmas, everyone!
