Christmas Cheer

Did you all have a fabulous Christmas? I hope so. Ours was busy and full of good family memories. Here's a quick recap....
We spent Christmas Eve in Jerome this year with the Burnham's.
Mackenzee wasn't feeling too chipper, and though she was heavily drugged with Tylenol :0) she was still able to sing her "La La" song for everyone. I'm mad I didn't think to record it because she did such a good job. The song she sang is actually called "When Christmas Comes to Town" from the Polar Express movie, and the reason she calls it the La La song is because that's what you sing at the beginning of the song. All December long she has been having me play it OVER AND OVER again in the car and eventually she was singing along. She was sure that she needed to sing it for everyone. :0)
And why the angel costume you ask? Aunt Jodie called and asked if Mackenzee would be the angel in the nativity story and it just so happened that we had the halo and wings in our dress up bin. Humorously, Mackenzee was sure that meant she was supposed to wear it ALL night.
After eating and playing games, the grandkids all opened up their Christmas jammies from Grandma Burnham. Such a handsome group, don't you think?
Christmas morning came...which means that Santa came. Unfortunately, Mackenzee was feeling even worse and I'm not sure she even remembers Christmas Day. She was almost zombie-like and could barely open her presents. We did get a smile out of her when she opened up her Abby Cadabby blanket from Nana. :0)
Christmas Day is also my neice, Breanna's birthday. She is a crazy teenager now, which is hard to believe.
The day after Christmas Landon finally came home to us. It's just not Christmas without him. His first stop was Nana and Papa's house where he made sure to pour some loving on his Papa. Of course, additional hugs were given to Nana, especially after he opened up his new Wii game. :0)
Amazingly, my brother-in-law, Stephen's birthday is Christmas Day as well, though we celebrated it the day after Christmas.
On Saturday we got to spend some more time with the Burnhams eating Thai food {yum!} and going to watch the movie "Bedtime Stories", which was super cute. It was just us {my nephew Talon included}, the Buxton's and Gage that saw the flick and we headed back to Grandma Burnham's house afterwards. Rachel and Aubrey showered Mackenzee with attention and did a little makeover on her. She totally ate it up and was able to fully enjoy it as her fever had gone away.
Sunday we had to say goodbye to everyone as my sister and her family were leaving that night and the Buxton's were leaving early the next morning. BUT! Stay tuned for some wicked awesome Burnham family photos. We did a quick photo shoot on Sunday in Jerome. I'll share more soon!
