Saturday - Tuesday

On Saturday, we recovered from our party. I mopped the kitchen floor and vacuumed. Jaron, Jenna and I just kicked back the rest of the day. Then, after Jacob went to work I put the kids in the bath, bundled them up in their jammies, wrapped them in blankets, then got in the car to look at Christmas lights. We just drove around Lake Ca. We didn't see anything special. Jenna ended up falling asleep and Jaron started to complain. We saw about 10 deer eating grass and we got chased by a crazy dog. It was fun though, stuff memories are made of.

On Sunday, we left to go to Fresno to visit Jacob's family for Christmas. On our way down I say a sign that said "Santa's Wonderland now open at Bass Pro Shops". Jacob and I found out where it was and took the kids. It was so awesome. They had a whole corner of the store set up for kids. Santa was there taking pictures with the people. They had different games for the kids to play. We had our picture taken with Santa, but I couldn't get our scanner to work.

Monday we spent the day at my in-law's house. We had a really nice visit. We ate homemade tamales and taquitos, with homemade salsa, and 7-layer dip for lunch. It was delicious. The kids opened presents that afternoon. Jaron and Jenna got some really cute clothes. Jaron got some remote controlled cars that when they bump into each other, they come apart and then you put them back together. He also got some great books and a dinosaur curator set. It is really cool. Jenna got some books and more things for her kitchen. Jacob got a gift card for the Apple store. He has already used it. He bought an FM transmitter for his i-phone so we can listen to the music on it in the car. I got a digital picture frame. I love those, they are so awesome, I can't wait to get it set up. My mother-in-law got Jaron, Jenna and their cousin Gabriel matching Christmas pajamas. They were so cute running around together. They had a great time.

Tuesday we came back home. We got home around 8 last night. Jaron and Jenna fell asleep on the way home, so they were wide awake. We finally got them to bed around 10. Jacob and I waited a little bit, and then started to wrap presents. We got them all wrapped and we finished about 12:30 in the morning.
