For our first Christmas, we decided we wanted to split it between
both families. So, Christmas Eve we spent it at my house with mom, dad,
Tanner, Ethan, Ashley, and my nephew Wyatt. Eth and Ash are moving a
week after Christmas so i really wanted to spend some time with them
before they moved 8 hours away from me :( Anyway, Christmas eve we did
our famous "pickle tradition," and GUESS WHO FOUND THE BIGGEST PICKLE?
that's right- my loverboy did. He didn't let anyone know, so no one
knew he found it until my dad noticed he had a bulge in his pocket.
sneaky one that one. Because he found the biggest pickle, he got to
open the biggest present, which was called Block N Stack. It was a lot
of fun. After we played games, mom and dad went to bed and us kids
played Just Dance 3 and enjoyed our Christmas Eve! It was funny to
dance with all of us 'big kids,' we were laughing our heads off.
Christmas
morning- Tanner and I woke up at 6:30 to open our presents to each
other! Christmas is my all-time favorite, I feel like a little girl
when it rolls around. So I jumped out of bed and rolled over to tanner
and said, "WAKE UP SLEEPY ITS CHRISTMAS!!!" I'm sure he enjoyed that. I
got us matching pajamas, so we wore them while we enjoyed opening
presents. We started with stockings- those were always my favorite
growing up. Tanner got me 3 lip gloss's, and perfume. (and I stuffed
some snickers in for myself haha) I got him cologne, snickers, chocolate
dipped pretzels, cinnamon bears, and butterfingers- his favorite. It
was so fun to open presents with tanner- we are both little kids when it
comes to opening presents. Let's see, I got him a toothbrush charger, a
toolbox, 2 shirts, and a fake ipad. He got me Dance Central 2, a
jacket, and sweat pants. What an eventful christmas together :)
My
mom asked me to play my violin in her ward choirs christmas concert, so
I did. I love playing my violin in church. After church we went over
to my parents house and had a little christmas with them! They got us a
Johnny Carinos gift card, some sweet stocking presents, and probably
the coolest gift was a choral ring my mom gave all my sisters and I.
Ashley and Ethan had us for Christmas- they gave us an electric blanket,
a fish, and they gave tanner a fake ipad. It was so funny.
After
the 'Anderson' Christmas, we went to Ashton and had Christmas with his
family! His parents got us a bed set to match the bed Tanner made. Oh
yeah, Tanner made us a log bed. It took him hours upon hours, but I
LOVE IT!! He did a good job. We played Settlers with Tanners family,
and just hung out and had a good time! We spent the night and went to
Green Canyon on Monday. We spent the night again and hung out with
everyone, and just had a party!
Tanner and I had such an amazing Christmas, and I can't wait for the next Christmas's to come!!
