Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a very long day for our family.  We woke up at 3:30 AM in order to get to to the airport on time for a 6:00 AM flight. 
 Unfortunately, one of our flight attendants decided not to show up and our 6:00 AM flight turned into a 7:00 AM flight causing us, and everyone on the plane, to miss our connecting flight.
 I don't think I want to remember all the details of getting stranded in Denver on Christmas Eve.  Let's just say we were very excited when we finally found a plane, on a different airline, that could get us to Boise - even though we were supposed to go to Salt Lake. The boys were so exhausted, they all fell asleep pretty soon after boarding our flight--a major blessing! 
 Wesley was pretty excited to see Buster Bronco waiting for us at the airport in Boise.
 A beautiful sunset on our drive to Twin Falls helped me forget the crazy day and get excited for the festivities ahead.
 We pulled into town just before 7 PM and were greeted by the whole crew.  So fun!
 We ate and got right to the Christmas jammies.
 It was so cute to see all the grandkids ready for the annual pajama parade. 

 Let the fun begin!
 Woo!
 The cousins had so much fun!!
 Eventually we toned things down, singing Christmas songs and reading the Christmas story.  Dillon even played a song for us.
 It was a long, but wonderful, day.  We were so happy we made it home for the holidays!
