We had our Christmas today. I love early Christmas. This picture is from yesterday though. Hutch went to Chick-Fil-A to see Jorja! I love Hutch! Jorja had no idea she was coming. What a fantastic surprise. She sure knows how to make Jorja feel important.
Preston's stocking
Mike, Stephanie and Maysen. I forgot to take pictures of Stockton's and Jorja's.
Stockton has been sleeping until noon every day since he got home from college. Super weird. He used to hate sleep. Today he was the first one up. Yay! I'm glad he is still excited for Christmas! Crazy that this is our last Christmas with him for two years. My heart hurts just thinking about it.

We had to wake up the other three kids. Look how adorable Preston is.

Mike patiently waiting for the kids to stop goofing around so we could open presents.
Maysen with her cloak we got her.
She loves it.
Mike made me an advent calendar with socks. Haha! He's the BEST!
The kids love drawing names for Christmas. They keep it secret and have to guess who gave them their gift. It's not like they have a lot of choices to figure it out, but they love it.

Stockton & Jorja
My dad came over with gifts. We got the first edition of his blog book. I love that! He also gave us a scripture calendar. He gave me my birthday present, which I am bringing up to the cabin to open there.
Dad
My main Christmas/birthday gift is a trip to Israel with my dad in November. I'm so excited! Jordyn is coming. Hopefully Rachel is coming. Jordyn is recruiting other family members to come. This will be the greatest! We got Mike a Zelda game for the Switch. Maysen got lots of Dungeon & Dragon stuff. Stockton got Mario Party for the Switch a Kermit the Frog book and some games. Jorja got clothes, perfume, a bluetooth radio thing for her car and Wicked Tickets. Preston got a new Switch game and other Switch stuff like cases and controllers. All of the kids got an Escape Room game too.
We went to an Escape Room today. It was by the old bowling alley and kind of sketchy. It was Pirate themed, so we had to do it. We solved the puzzles pretty quickly. The thing that took us the longest is they had a key for morse code painted on the wall. It was huge. We could not figure out what it was for. Turns out they don't use that puzzle anymore because it was too hard. Ummmm.... then why was it still there? Once we opened the safe and found the key we couldn't figure out what the next step was. We thought we still had things to do because we had never used the morse code. Nope, that was the key to get out of the room. Hahahaha! We then left and stuffed ourselves at Red Robin.
