Hope you all had an enjoyable Christmas and Happy New Years. We sure did. It always starts with homeade sugar cookies and ends with a nap. What could be better than that? Ken's mom and sister were able to come spend 10 days down in Arizona with us and they were able to do quite a bit. On Christmas morning Ken and Kyson slept in probably until almost 10:30, until I finally woke them up. It was time to open Christmas presents! Kyson had so much fun opening presents this year. He got some building blocks, a remote control car, a little counting turtle, a grandma Nhep afgan, gator golf, a few transformers (that were really for Ken), and some pjs, and games. He's been building with his blocks ever since and once he builds a big enough tower he is so excited to knock it over. 
After opening presents we prepared dinner and ate a nice big meal, all took about a 2 hour nap and then watched Christmas movies... it's always been tradition to watch Christmas movies. In the evening we went to the Mesa temple to watch live Christmas music, look at all the Christmas lights and nativities, and watch a film on the birth of Christ. It was really neat. I really enjoyed seeing the Christus statue, esp on Christmas, as it was a large scale reminder of why we even celebrate His birth.
Overall, it made for a great holiday spent with family. We missed seeing more family, as some of Ken's family couldn't make it, and my brother and his family went to Utah for the holidays. But we still enjoyed our time with each other and all of the festivities.
