Christmas Festivities

We hope everyone had a great Christmas!! We had an amazing Christmas.. It's so fun to have a child and experience Christmas in a whole different way. Even though she is still too young to realize who santa is it was still so much fun having her to open her presents.



We started off Christms Eve with the Tolman tradition.. "John's Incredible Pizza". Addison LOVED the carousel and the little frog ride. She also loved walking around everywhere trying to keep up with her cousins.
The Nelson family.. thanks to my husband for covering up my face.. :) After pizza we all headed to my sister Alisha's to open presents and have yummy food of course!

Of course the best part of the night and by far the best present any of us could have received was being able to skype with my little brother Jordan. He is in Africa serving a mission and it was so good to see him. He has never seen Addison so it was fun to let him see her and have her see him. She just sat there but at least they got to see each other!

Grandma with her two of her princesses.. in the jammies she bought them.



Christmas morning Addison woke up around 8:30 which was a nice present itself!! We took her downstairs and let her see what santa brought and open her presents. She was as excited as a 10 month old can be.. but she still loved playing with all her toys.

The best gift we have received this year is our little Addison. She is so much fun and I love seeing her little personality grow each day. I am so grateful for all the blessings in my life but most of all for my family. It's so fun to be a mom and I look forward to doing it again in a few weeks. Baby boy Nelson "Austin" is scheduled to arrive Feb. 22nd or 23rd as far as we know. I will try to keep this updated as it gets closer! Happy New Year everyone!!
