we love love love Julie and Andy they are such great people and Julie is the sweetest woman ever! This Christmas they hosted an ugly sweater party and we also exchanged cookies and did a white elephant gift exchange :) now first and for most Jordan and I didn't mean to be party crashers but we were the ONLY ones who didn't wear an ugly sweater. I could say that a really good reason that we did not was because we ran out of time to look for one or rather I did, Jordan's been working a whole lot. But even though that is the truth I still feel really bad :( we were so sad to not participate because we know we WOULD HAVE WON that contest! LOL no really we just love to party and have fun and look goofy but on that note we at least got to visit with some pretty awesome friends.
these are the Hague's and we love them and they are so sweet and have the sweetest little boy Brayden and we are so glad they decided to have this party. MUAH Hagues!
Jordan and I won a picture of a guy playing the saxophone AND a glass unicorn figurine :)
Maria won the uglies sweater and also got some cool gifts...Julie...way cool idea with the road sign!
us sticking out like sore thumbs WITH NO sweater :( LOL we're party poopers!
the Herrings....they are just so cute and funny and we love them and their cute family
and this is our most recent picture of Faye...Christmas morning :)
For Christmas we got Faye two things...an ornament (her first) and scripture scout CD's :) (thanks to Kat who introduced them to us (smile)) we figure she has so many toys already and her grandparents and family and friends that spoil her rotten that we would be modest oh and the fact that she really doesn't get it anyways (grin). My super great friend Juanita had a great idea of 3 gifts each Christmas for all the kids (well each kid gets 3 things)...I think it's a great idea. There is more that goes with why you do 3 which I won't go into now but I think it's a great idea and we may adopt it in the future. We also want to start the a new tradition next year since we now have Faye, that the present that everyone opens on Christmas eve will be PJ's, sometimes they will match sometimes they won't, which will be the surprise part. But it will be great fun for pictures I think? (cheese?).
We made Christmas breakfast again this year and it was so fun. Well Jordan did almost all of the cooking, and he is amazing! This year on the menu was : two homemade quiche's, from scratch waffles, eggs. bacon, homemade oj, and banana's. it was yummy!
our quiche
We wish you all the happiest of holidays and a very happy new year!
love you!

I love the picture of Faye! She is BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the Christmas Eve PJ gift idea. We did that growing up. I want to hear about the 3 gifts idea. We planned to do only 1 gift from Santa each year. Oh, and next Christmas I am coming over for Jordan's breakfast! :) Merry Christmas!!!
Fun! we skipped our ugly christmas sweater cookie exchange party this year, so we are the party poopers, lol. love the gifts idea!
