This year, Jason had to work on Christmas day, so Santa made an early stop at our house on Christmas Eve. That Santa Claus is pretty smart. He knows when to come despite work schedules! :)
We woke Lois up from her late-afternoon nap telling her that Santa had come early and left her a bunch of fun toys. She was a little disoriented from being woken up, but she quickly got very excited!
Look - Santa came!
She really liked her little buggy car. And of course, all her princess stuff.
Beep, beep!
This year, Lois didn't even show interest in the presents hanging out under the tree, which surprised me. But on Friday night, we unleashed the unwrapping monster! She's so polite to wait, isn't she? But we did have to reign her in when she wanted to open all the other presents that were making their way to St. George when we visited my family. Man, she's cute.
Jason LOVES this book. He read it over his vacation and he said that it has changed his life. I'm looking forward to reading it! Thanks mom and dad Wright!
Lois reading the book that G&G Wright sent to her. A cute book written by Julie Andrews about a Princess Fairy. Lois was very pleased.
To go along with her art easel, she got a set of princess art supplies, as seen scattered across the floor. Yep. The 30 rolls of stickers and other miscellaneous supplies continue to be scattered around our house, despite my best efforts. Santa was not thinking when purchasing that.
Her Ariel princess wand from G&G Wright. She thought it was pretty nifty.

Jason's grandpa made this darling little cradle for Lois and she LOVES it. The past few days, I've made a little mattress and pillow for it and will be making a little doll quilt, too!
Look at that cute bug.
Jason feeling pretty excited for his vacation to start in about 24 hours.
And for the record, I got Jason a watch, two belts and the fleece he's wearing in the above picture. He bought me a TV for the bedroom and some necklaces from Charming Charlie's.
It was a good year! We got spoiled from both sets of parents as always. We're so lucky and blessed.
Up next - the week in St. George with the Smith gang!

I want to see a picture of the quilt, mattress and pillow when it's done. My mom made me a set like that to go with my doll bed when I was young and I LOVED it! We also got the President Monson book for Christmas. That's a great recommendation from Jason, we'll have to get reading!
Lois in that car...classic. And beautiful! Is Jason getting so excited for trains, planes, sports, and BLUE stuff for Simon? I mean, princesses, fairies, and glittery pink things are spectacular, but you know that both our husbands are just dying to get the boy stuff started, right? haha.
Soooo cute :)
