Christmas 2013

We had such a wonderful Christmas this year.  It is always fun to spend Christmas with Family.  On Christmas Eve I was off work early, and Jon's mom and sister Avena came down to spend the Holiday with us.  On Christmas Eve day we were very busy.  We have a plug in our bathroom that broke.  Jon tried to fix it, but it was the wrong size.  So it will be saved for another day.

After that was done, Jon made Rice Krispies Treats while his mom made sugar cookies for us to decorate.

Frosting Sugar Cookies!!

Thanks Avena for taking all the pictures.  It allowed me to be in some of them. :)

That evening we had a Christmas program Family Home Evening.  Jon's sister Avena brought a poem down about the symbols of Christmas.  Jon's mom shared a couple of Christmas poems.  I played the piano and sang a song, and Jon read the Christmas story out of the Bible while we sang Christmas songs in between verses.  It was a very spiritual night.

Growing up we had a tradition where we would get to open one gift every Christmas Eve.  It was always pajamas.  This year I surprised everyone and made some for all who were here.  It was a lot of fun and they were all surprised.

I made the same ones for the Girls and then a different one for Jon.

Merry Christmas from the Robbins!!!

Christmas morning was a lot of fun.  Jon got a DeWalt Drill and I got a sewing table!!  I was so excited to see that sitting by my stocking.  

We had such a great Christmas.  We wish Jon's mom and sister could have stayed longer, but we enjoyed they time they were here.  Thanks so much for coming.  We wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.
