Merry Christmas 2011

Neighbor/Josh's Co-Worker Gifts

Gnarly, always curiously watching what we make in the kitchen

This christmas was a lot of fun. We were able to spend it with both sides of our families! The Ormonds invited my family to come up and spend Christmas with them, which was so nice of them. My family had a great time. I love that it was Ollies first Christmas too. We didn't make too much of a fuss over presents because he is set right now in the toy dept so we/Santa gave him some books and the Loin King. We need to start building up our Disney Collection.


To kick off Christmas we all headed down to temple square to see the lights. It was crowded, crazy and cold as usual.

And Josh has a beard. I want it to go away.

Wyrick/Ormonds and Carrie . . . not sure what happened to the big group photo!

 Christmas Eve we did the traditional reading from the bible of the Christmas Story while the kids acted it out. Ollie was baby Jesus. This was his 3rd time. 
Side Story: Our family was asked to be in the ward christmas play. It was performed once at the old peoples home and once at the ward christmas party. The story was a modern take on the birth of Christ. I was super nervous about the performances (I don't like public attention and I'm not an actress), but it turned out great and now I can say I have been in a christmas play. 

 Josh also made a nice presentation highlighting each family's highlights from the year. It was cool to hear about what everyone had been busy doing all year and all of the change that occurred.

 Christmas was on a Sunday this year so that meant we went to Church. We had Michelle's Over Night French Toast when we got back and then opened presents.

Michelle Excited to open presents!

 Ollie sported my Christmas outfit that I wore as a baby. Good thing its gender neutral! It fit him perfectly and he was a very cute Santa baby.

Max and his Captain America mask we got him.

Ollie just wanted to put everything in his mouth.

Ollie was worn out. All of those presents!

I got Josh a new Classic ipod and he got me a new 27" iMac. It was time for an upgrade. I am so totally in love with my new computer.

Our Dads

Love his face!

One finger in Mouth at all times.

Uncle Daren or "the Closer." He put Ollie to sleep like a pro. Ollie loved hanging out with him.

New Years! Yes Ollie stayed up.

We went to the Macoroni Grill downtown with my family and Kristen. Then we came back to our house for fondue and Just Dance 3. Fun night! 2011 you were great!

Ollie and I hanging out after church. We like to have fun.
