I know it's almost Feb, give me a break....

So I know that I am way behind. i just haven't been in the blogging spirit lately. Maybe if I did exciting things in my life I would want to share them. but, i don't. So i have to make Christmas last longer because I miss home already. So Here is Fun Christmas morning pictures! I LOVE christmas morning especially at my house! It lasts like half of the day. I don't know how everyone else does Christmas but at the Reid residence each person opens there own staking and everyone watches and then we all open gifts one by one. I know Russell's family probably thinks that that is CRAZy since they all just dig into their presents and I can't figure out what is going on because it is CHOAS hahaha, but I like the way we do it. It makes it last longer. Until 2 o'clock to be exact. Ryan and Bri, The Mullaly's and Russ and I joined Lacey and my parents to open up gifts. it was a fun time. I love CHRISTMAS!

Fun Christmas Parties!

I had a few fun Christmas parties I went to before we went to Phoenix! It was way fun! I had a work Christmas party where we went to the Melting Pot! Marc was surrounded by all women so you could imagine how fun it was! haha! It was so much fun and the food was AMAZING! I don't know how i managed to eat all that I did!! We pretty much had to be carried out in wheel barrels we were sooooo full!

Here is me showing off my fullness at the end of the night.

Then We had a fun Christmas party with our friends in Utah! we ate, played games and had a sweet elephant gift exchange where we shared our family traditions with one another. so fun! I was not in the sock club at the party but then i got jakes present (which had army socks in it!) It was a good party.Christmas + friends + presents = Amazingness.
