Christmas with the Rupprechts in California! (December 22nd)

After we drove from New Mexico all Friday afternoon and evening, we slept a little bit that night and got up and ready for celebrating Christmas morning with my family!

The only stocking missing is mine. =(

Mom made a delicious Christmas breakfast.
Quiche, orange rolls, and fresh squeezed orange juice!









Hope with her present Bryan wrapped for me and his little blue ninja




Nate loved his beanie with headphones built in

Sweet presents from Matt!

Sarah, Amy, and Rebecca checking out their loot!

Money from Grams!

Mom trying on her scarf from Sarah



Super stoked about his comfy slippers!


Sarah has a present...what is it?

PPPOPPPPSSSS!!!!


 I mean A DRESS!!!

And...could it be...socks?!?!?!



I had to get creative with what I wrapped things in this year.
Cereal boxes, drink boxes...even a cake mix box.

A beautiful present from the Urbinas!




Our present from Nate!


 It fits!



Matt and Phoebe trying on Phoebe's scarf





My cute little elf

After that we did some clean-up and got ready to head over to Grama's house.

We had a very non-traditional lunch of tostadas!


We were blessed to have Grams with us another year!

Sarah and Jameson, my cousin Jessie's baby
















Right after a fun afternoon with extended family we all loaded into the cars and headed up I-15 all the way to Utah. We arrived at 7 in the morning and caught a couple hours of sleep before most of us got up for church.
