Merry Christmas!

Christmas this year was slightly weird.  I figured Eriksen would get up bright and early so he could see what Santa left for him but no.  We had 8:20 sacrament so I went to wake Eriksen up at 8:10 and he said, "Mom, it's too early to wake up.  You woke me up too early."  We got the kids dressed and head to church.  An hour meeting was nice.  When we got home, we put Brystal back in her jammies and Eriksen dressed himself.  We then went out into the living room to see what Santa left.  Eriksen didn't notice his crane or stocking but went right to Brystal's horse and stocking.  It was so funny.  Eriksen was really excited about each gift.  He loved everything and said, "I've always wanted this."  That included his socks, toothbrush and orange!  Brystal loved her rocking horse and loves her baby.  Grandma Porter gave her a baby to go in the stroller that Grandpa and Grandma Pickett gave her.  She loves holding the baby, rocking in the rocking chair and patting the babies back.  It is so cute.  She pushed the baby around all day.  After presents, we had Grandpa Porter over for coconut macadamia nut french toast.  It was yummy.  We then napped and headed to Grandpa and Grandma's house for dinner.  We played catch phrase with the family.  It was a great Christmas!
