Some Pre-Christmas Adventures

Our first stop on our trip home for the Holidays was St. George. I just loved being with my dad and Heidi for the weekend. Everyone came down, even my sister Ashley and her family met us there on their way from Cali. That weekend we took family pictures and made gingerbread houses. The best part was Braden deciding he wanted to be Rudolph and Anut Ashley helping him make a shiny RED nose.

On the Sunday before Christmas we left St. George and headed north to be with my momma for our first annual Bozung/Johnsen Family Christmas party. It was so much fun! We had a yummy dinner, acted out the Nativity in costumes my mom made, had a white elephant exchange, and a surprise visit from Santa!

Braden was the Donkey

I thought for sure that Braden might warm up to Santa after watching Kennedee jump up on his lap and even give Santa a hug but he still wanted nothing to do with him. This picture is Braden keeping as far away from Santa as possible. He did however tell Santa that he wanted a Fishing Pole from his safe spot on top of the couch.
