Christmas #2 with Larsens

We continued with some Larsen family traditions for our Christmas celebrations this year.  On Christmas Eve we went up to Bountiful and enjoyed soup for dinner followed by the Christmas Pageant and a small talent show.  Grandma Larsen keeps adding to the Christmas Pageant costumes and script.  There was even a star this year!

 Jason, Leila, and I spent the night over at my parents.  We had the entire family there and it was a full house! We let Leila determine when we got up and going which wasn't until after 8, much to Annie's displeasure.  Santa was good to everyone this year and it took quite a while to get through everyone's piles.  Leila so didn't get the gift idea but enjoyed being in a room she usually isn't allowed in.  She pulled ornaments of trees, played with the nativity, built a small nest out of wrapping paper, clothes, and gifts from everyone's piles.

After a day of resting and play we went back up to Bountiful for Christmas dinner.  I know these get togethers are a lot of work for Grandma Larsen, but I am sure glad she makes the effort to bring us all together so often!
