Merry Christmas Eve

Christmas is over. I have taken down my digital Christmas decor and I'm ready to get back to reality. But, first I will tell you about our Christmas holiday.

Jarom's family came from Cali. and stayed with the Becar's in Taylorsville. We were so glad to spend some time with them. We started out Christmas Eve by taking the Cali Becar's snowboarding up at Sundance. My brother and dad joined them. They did GREAT for first-timers and Dawn Noel was a sport. :)

Cannon had to get in on the action and we let him watch them come down the hill. He was so cold but stayed in a good mood long enough to get a picture.


He had a minor tantrum right after this which resulted in our speedy trip down the mountain to the Stewart's for Christmas Eve dinner. It was SO yummy. Grandma W made this soup that was amazing. It was some sort of chicken with white beans and lots of basil. The Davis family (my mom's sister) was there so we had a blending of Christmas Eve traditions. We usually have fondue for dinner, but that was switched for the Davis soup tradition. We also usually read the Christmas story from the bible. That was modified for a reenactment of the Nativity. Cannon got to be baby Jesus and Jocey made an ADORABLE Mary.

Then, we opened our traditional Christmas Eve pjs. Ummm... Cannon had some too. He just wasn't in a pj mood. For some reason, he HATES getting into his pajamas. Then we had baklava for dessert and watched Christmas movies like the Grinch before going to bed.
