Boy's gifts
Girl's gifts(yes, you read that right:)
........my sister, Rachelle, and her family. When the boys walked out Christmas morning, there was their family sitting next to their presents from Santa:) Kordin's reaction wasn't as big as expected. He looked at them and said, "Oh, hi!" And then gave hugs;) But you can see in his absolutely happy eyes and smile that he was thrilled:)
Karson got XBox Kinect for Christmas. It's great, it's XBox's answer to the Wii, but you don't have to have any controllers. It just senses your moves. Presley was trying to follow Karson and do what he did:)
Daxon and Presley- I think Daxon felt a little challenged when Presley came cuz she took over the baby spot in the house. At one point he said,"Hey, where's that stinky baby, oh, I mean......" But yesterday after they left, I overheard him saying to Karson, " I miss Presley more than you do!"

Coming from cold UT, the girls couldn't wait to try out the pool. No, it's not heated, but that didn't matter:) They played tug-o-war(something we've never tried before) and each of them got pulled in at one point. I think they lost their breath, it was so cold, but that didn't stop them:)
The kids didn't want to come in on Christmas Day and ate their dinner outside;)
End of a wonderful Christmas Day. I think this was one of my favorite Christmas Days ever! No one ever worried about getting dressed or ready for the day and we just hung out all day and ate when we wanted to, which was a bit too much :)
On Monday, we walked with the kids down to our favorite little restaraunt AJ's Persian Grill, for breakfast. You can see the kids way ahead of us on their bikes in the background.
On our way back, we stopped at the Wigwam Resort to take pictures in their little Christmas Village.
Presley was so cute on these drums. She would sing to the beat as she hit the drums;)
Two brothers hanging out together:)
Kordin and Morgen are the best of friends. They were very sad when they found out that we weren't all going to St. George together the next day, so they made the most of their night. They stayed up until I don't know playing Kinect.

Here they are yesterday before they left. We are so glad they were able to come and spend this Christmas with us!!! I think we were all a little depressed for the day after they left, cuz everyone just layed around and slept. But we are getting back to normal today;) Love you, Call Family!!! Thank you again for coming!!!!!
Say cheese, Presley :)

What a fun Christmas surprise! I'm glad you had fun Christmas with some of your family.
P.S. I finally finished that clip, but I didn't know your sis's name so I sent it to Baby Tenley!
So many fun pics from a wonderful Christmas!!! I've been dying to know how the surprise went down ... such a fun way to spend the holidays! I'm sad your trip to St. George didn't work out, but I'm sure you had a wonderful New Year freezing her in AZ ;)
