Christmas Break!

We were so lucky that we got to go home to Las Vegas for three weeks over Christmas Break! It was Kayli’s first road trip and vacation. We split up staying at the Grandma’s houses so Kayli got to be held, cuddled, sang to, and loved the entire vacation by family. She was very popular and always being held by someone. We had so much help and Kenny and I even got to go out on a date!

While we were there Kayli got to meet Ryan Griffith, Kenny’s best friend, Ross’s, son. Get that? Ryan is one week older than Kayli.

We spent Christmas Eve at the England house. Kayli stayed awake to take pictures in her cute little Christmas outfit, that was three sizes too big for her…but she still rocked the outfit!

Kayli’s first Christmas…

Once our pictures were taken, Kayli was out! Daddy had to open all of her presents for her…

Grandma and Grandpa England sure spoiled us. We loved our presents!

When Kayli did wake up and realized that she had gotten so many new, exciting toys, she yelled, “Yay!”

So the funniest part of the night was when we tried to get Kayli and her cousin, Adam, to take a picture together in their cute Christmas outfits….here’s what happened…

Kayli was NOT havin’ it…and Adam was wondering why she was crying so dang much…

and it continued because the moms just wanted a picture!

and eventually EVERYONE was crying…

We stayed at the Eliason’s house Christmas Eve and spent Christmas with them. Christmas morning was so much fun and the Eliasons spoiled us too!

We got a Bosch!

I got a sewing machine! (that I need to learn how to use so I can make cute little girly things…)

I did get a first sewing lesson, though, by Kari and Kaci…I even made a rice bag! Whoohoo!

Another thing we did over break was take Kayli to FlipNout! Too bad she slept through the entire thing…I’m sure we will hang out there plenty more throughout her lifetime so there will be plenty more times to be awake…

I even got to see my best friends! Both Casey and Alise had baby showers while we were all home for Christmas. I love these girls!

We blessed Kayli in Las Vegas so that all of our family could be there. Kenny got to bless her. Kayli wore the dress that I was blessed in, so that was kind of special. We had lots of family there for the blessing. Kayli looked beautiful!
