Holiday Picture Overload

Here's a bunch of pictures of our awesome, crazy, flu stricken, merry holiday! 

Susie and her friend helped me assemble treats to pass out to neighbors. It was cold but fun. All the kids help deliver and sing a quick "we wish you a Merry Christmas" to friends around our neighborhood. 

Chante gave Susie and I tickets to see the Tabernacle Christmas concert. It was amazing. The Spirit of Christ filled the room and I was so grateful to share such a wonderful experience with my girl. 

Susie got really sick a week before Christmas. I took her to the doctor and she tested positive for the flu. She couldn't leave her bed for days. On Christmas Eve she started to feel better and no on else had come down with it yet so we all went to SeaQuest for something fun (Paul had to work). Jalair went with us and  we had a fun time. Later on that day we made sugar cookies. 

By the time Paul got home we had our little snack feast and Ben Hur tradition ready to go. 

We had our Christmas Eve devotional a day early on the 23rd. My favorite was Braden playing Silent Night while two brothers sang along. So sweet, I cried!

Mom and & Dad stockings 

Clark got legos from Santa. 

Braden got a new video game and controller.

Timmy got Magformers. 

Susie got a hoverboard seat (so she can finally use the hoverboard she's spent a year being terrified of!) 

Clark started throwing up Christmas morning and was too sick to unwrap his presents. By the end of the day Paul and Timmy and Henry weren't feeling well either. Somehow I made it through

  taking care of the flu people without getting sick, hurray! 

The BEST part of Christmas came after Christmas was over. My family came to visit me. My parents stayed for a few days and Olivia and her family stayed for nine days. It was heaven! We had so much fun. 

Pickle ball everyday with JP, Sees candy, game nights, thrift shopping, we had a blast. 

New Years Eve tree! With a few fun activities. 

We had a Garbett family party too and got to hang out with some cousins. 

One last thing to record, Clark entered a coloring contest at Smiths and won! He loves to draw and coloring and paint and create. He was so excited to find out he was the winner. It was so fun to see.
