Our First Christmas

I warned Preston that I wouldn't be able to sleep and that I would be getting him up at four o'clock to open presents (yes he says I act like a little kid all the time). But instead it was Preston trying to wake me up at 7:00, and it took him a while to get me out of bed. We filled up each others stockings and headed to the front room. It was so much fun watching each other open our presents, and Bandit too!

Some of Preston's favorite gifts were a pair of Oakley sunglasses, ISU sweats, cologne, shop towels, lots of candy, and lottery tickets. Some of my favorite gifts were new shoes for work, a bunch of giftcards, some beautiful jewelery, and a new coat to match Preston. We had pull aparts for breakfast, a tradition my mom started a few years ago, and I plan to continue to keep for my family. We had to rush to get everything cleaned up and to get ready for church in Shelley, so our house was a mess. It was a great sacrament meeting though with my mom, dad, Trav, Meish, and the Elizondo's. We split the day between our families again, starting with lunch at my Grandma Eborn's, and finishing the night with dinner at Littlewood's. It was fun as always being with family. Our families were very nice to us this year, my parents gave me a Kindle Fire, both of our parents went in on a Go Pro Helmet Cam for Preston, Larry and Lory gave me a suitcase (hopefully there will be another girls Vegas trip soon), and the Littlewood girls all exchanged gifts (the boys didn't want to this year), Travis and Meisha gave us a popcorn popper some movies and some candy for a fun at home date night, and my Grandma Eborn gave us gloves and a gift card to Winco. We gave my mom a wedding photo album, my dad an accessorie for the jeep (and some snow oreo's), Travis a SD card for his helmet cam, Meisha some clothes for her new baby bump, and we went in on a night at the Hibernation Station for Larry and Lory with Preston's brothers. It was really a perfect day, spent with my favorite person. I can't wait to spend countless more Christmas' together!
