We spent Christmas Eve with the Milligan clan. We went caroling, and then spent the evening enjoying food and family. Neal and I got to meet baby Olivia for the first time, and because we had a new baby the kids acted out the Nativity as one of the adults read Luke 2 (Neal played the donkey). One of the best parts was SNOW! That's right! We had a white Christmas in Colorado!!

Christmas morning Neal and I slept in (hallelujah) and then opened our present to each other. Neal gave my flannel pjs that I've been wanting for a LONG time, some Under Armor workout gear, the Bourne movies, new snowboarding boots, and a new stomp pad.

| New pjs! Yay!! |
I gave Neal two new coats (one is a dress coat that I'm in love with...he looks quite dashing when he wears it), a Broncos shirt, and a new Gerber multi-tool (that is apparently the bomb tech version...it has a C4 punch).

We then went down to my parents house to open gifts, and then to my grandparents for dinner. One of our favorite presents was a new addition to our little possum family. World, meet Jep :)

All in all, we had a wonderful Christmas filled with joy and family. It was so wonderful to celebrate the birth of the Savior, and to remember all of the wonderful things he did for us!
