It's Christmas, it's Christmas.....

Christmas was a whirlwind of awesomeness. We spent time in Boise, Logan, Orem, American Fork, Bountiful and the cabin…..all in just a few weeks time! Despite saying "want mama!" hundreds of times a day, Ruby really did love spending time with the family…and so did we! It was especially fun to see Ruby get so excited about opening gifts on Christmas morning. It was as magical as I could have hoped for!

Marie's house is so magical during the holidays!

Ruby learned quickly that the whole getting presents thing is pretty sweet….

Cutest kids! (Even if mine was crying! Ruby did her fair share of fussing if I wasn't holding her…..poor muffin!)

We love the tradition of  going to see the lights with all the Bigelows when we're in Boise. 

Uma's babies! She's a pro at holding two at once. :)

She may not always show it, but Ruby loves her Uncle Todd!

Auntie Mimi!

Showing Pa her princess!

Ruby's makeshift stocking (Ralph's sock! HA!) was a huge success!

She was SO excited to get her "La-la"…the moment was everything I hoped it would be!

Awesome Christmas day dinner with this crew. 

When the men and older kids were at the cabin, the dance parties were plentiful!

These two. So funny - as you'll see below. :)

Ringing in the New Year and celebrating Ty's birthday. Always one of the year's highlights!

Auntie Con is so cool. She even let us party at her school…and it was epic. 

Free reign of a gym and all the P.E. items you could dream of made for an amazingly fun afternoon. 

We were so grateful for the opportunity to see Kira be baptized!

Anna had Ruby's name for Christmas and Ruby still points out the shirt and toys she got from Anna this year. 

Scrollie kids! Everything about this photo demonstrates how awesome and hilarious this night was. 

Ruby still asks for Alli on a decently regular basis. 

These folks. So good. 

Lots of fun times with Uma, Grandpa and Jonas!

Bless Lynn for making crab AGAIN so we could partake. 

UMA!
