Christmas Eve Party 09

We celebrated our annual Munoz family Christmas Eve party at our house this year. We had a very full house with Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, all the nephews and 3 dogs! We had lots of yummy food and desserts. We played Toss Up, Rock Band, danced and listened to music as we waited until midnight to open our presents. After the extended family went home we opened the rest of our gifts and opened our stockings. Our theme was a Giving Tree Christmas which I will post in another entry. Following tradition we all had a bowl of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Cereal before finally going to bed around 4:00 am. We had a wonderful Christmas and were so blessed to have all of our family together.

Jeremy and Amberlynn

Amberlynn and Jeremy were our Christmas present this year. Devin and Derek drove to Idaho to pick them up and bring them home. They arrived here on Christmas Eve just in time to celebrate. Jeremy could only stay for a few days before he had to go back to work so we had to pack in as much movie time, games, food, visiting, and goodies as we could before he left. Amber was able to stay a week longer before she had to go back to school. We loved having them here for Christmas. It was such a blessing!

Family Photo Session

We had quite the crazy photo session today. Just getting everyone ready in coordinating clothes and out the door was quite an accomplishment in and of itself. We went to the Westin Hotel. The grounds are beautiful. Sharma Jackson from our ward was kind enough to act as our photographer. We just used my little digital camera but they turned out pretty darn cute. The best part was when the boys were trying to help Henry into a tree to get a picture. It took several tries. We could not have asked for better weather. I am so excited that we finally got some family pictures. It will be a long time before we will be together again to take another photo.
