Saturday (Christmas Eve) we went over to my mom's to open gifts and then have dinner. My mom made a fabulous meal...Honeybaked Ham, homemade macaroni and cheese, cheesy potatoes, squash, asparagus, homemade chocolate pudding, rolls, and Gary made pumpkin pies...and the Hamp's came over to eat with us.
Happy boy ready for his first Christmas
Baby Park was more excited about the wrapping paper than the gifts
We were happy to have Ramsey celebrating Christmas with us again this year
Park and I got this print of the SLC Temple for my mom and Gary for Christmas...Park made the frame

We then headed over to the Nelson's to reenact the Nativity.

Two of my favorite Ryan's
Although our Nativity Reenactment was quite irreverent, this year I have a deeper love and admiration for Mary. Being a mother is the most amazing gift a woman can be given. How special Mary must have been to the Lord for Him to choose her to bring His son, our Savior, into this world.
