We were able to enjoy Christmas in California with both Matt's Family as well as mine this year. It was great to see everyone & super neat to see how excited Enzo was to see all his cousins, aunts, uncles & grandparents. Even though Enzo was only 8.5 months old he loved Christmas or at least the wrapping paper. We ended up having 4 different Christmas' while in California & 1 in Utah (before we left).How about that Enzo was able to enjoy five 1st Christmas'. Each was unique & filled with lots of family and fun.
Christmas #1 @ Home
Matt, Enzo & I exchanged gifts before we headed to California. I did not want to pack gifts, just to open them on Christmas Day and then repack them. It was a good thing we did this too because we ended up renting a car (or a tin can) since our car was having some work done on it & we didn't want to spend a fortune in gas by driving the truck. Enzo loved helping us open presents.
Christmas #2 @ Poll's
We enjoyed a great night with Matt's Sister Tammy & her family as well as Sara & her family. We ate the best Mexican food, visited & exchanged gifts.
Christmas #3 @ Grandpa Fawcett's
It's a Christmas tradition on my Dad's side for Christmas Eve to be spent at Grandpa Fawcett's house. The cousins exchange gifts and we are able to enjoy each others company. The group was small this year, but it was fun to see everyone that could make it & for Enzo to meet his Great Grandpa Fawcett.
Christmas #4 Fawcett's Christmas Morning
We got up super early on Christmas Morning, lined up from youngest to oldest in the hallway and made our way into the living room where santa left all sorts of goodies. Dad cooked us breakfast which was super yummy. Then we all rushed to get ready for 9am church where we enjoyed a very nice Christmas Program. Enzo loved finding out what Great Grandma Holman had gotten him (the hippo). He could see the top of it all week and constantly would attack it.
Christmas #5 Poll Family Christmas Afternoon
After church we headed over to Matt's parents house to enjoy a wonderful Christmas Dinner. It was a lot of fun to see the rest of the family & for Enzo to get to see all of his cousins. Enzo enjoyed all the wrapping paper as we unwrapped more gifts. He loved the train that Grandpa & Grandma Poll got him.
