Christmas Catch-up
We had a great Christmas season full of car rides to see lights and way too many treats. We did our traditional night of Chinese food with my mom, sister Dana, and niece Casey and then went to show them some of our favorites houses.
Christmas came early for Cam as he got to stitch his own face after falling onto a cleat during football on Christmas Eve morning. He actually declared that stitching his own face was all he wanted for Christmas. Sure he is pretty tough . . . check out his pink kitty bandaid.
BEFORE (with our friend Bob the chef)
AFTER
On Christmas Eve we did the Auger family traditional dinner of Swedish meatballs, potatoes, cabbage, and rice pudding. We opened our one present each - pajamas again, of course. We read from the scriptures, had a few piano solos, and then Cami directed us in the Nativity. She was Mary, Dad was Joseph, Cal was the drummer boy, and Mom was the wise man.
Christmas morning we woke up around 7:45 and opened stockings and had dream cakes and then opened presents. Cal gave Cam this sweet mug from his school. Cami got a Pillow Pet, Zoobles, and Barbie Glitterizer from Santa and Cal got a Nintendo DS and Hot Wheels Criss Cross Crash. I think Cami's favorite present was her "American Girl" (or a Target version) that Cal picked out for her.
Sunday morning we had Grandma Linda and Papa over for breakfast and presents. Sunday night we had Dana, Scott, Casey, and Granny over for dinner and presents.
They may have also gotten some face paint for Christmas . . .

His OWN stitches? Wow! Looks like a fun Christmas time! So fun to see you today, too!!!!!
I'm loving the face paint! :) And I don't know what dream cakes are, but they sound really good, especially if they're made by THE Kelly Auger. :)
