Family fun at Chrismastime (Rollins)

We went to the Rollins Christmas party down in Salt Lake and had a "special" visitor come. Unfortunately Anisten is absolutely terrified of Santa, so she wasn't too excited about this "special" visitor. Rob had to take her out of the room when he came, but Aivree didn't seem to have a problem with him.

We made Ani come back in the room but you can see how distraught she is that she has to even be in the same room as the scary man who brings her presents. We finally got to the point where we told her that we were the ones who bring her presents on Christmas and not Santa.

She was much happier after she got the present and didn't have to worry about sitting on his lap or looking at him.

After the party we went to Temple Square to see the lights and here we are riding the "Polar Express!" Actually it was just Trax but Ani loves Polar Express so she loved thinking she was riding it. Ani all bundled up at Temple Square (Aivree was sleeping for a minute in her daddy's arms)


We always go the Rollins' on Christmas Eve and here is Ani with her heart hair. Can you see it?

Aivree Christmas Eve morning. I let them open their matching Old Navy shirts and we put these bows on her head from the presents. She kept trying to get them off, but she was missing badly. haha Silly girl.

Our happy Christmas Family

Grandma and Grandpa Rollins went way overboard again and we went home loaded down with all kinds of gifts. The girls were spoiled with toys and Rob and I got a new Lifetime picnic table for our deck and lots of food storage. Yay! Thank you mom and dad Rollins! Merry Christmas!
