1. Taylor went on a date with Grandma P to High School Musical on Ice where she was royally spoiled and definitely created a lasting memory with Grandma.
2. Making Christmas cookies. I let them just have at it with the sprinkles and didn't think about the mess until after. Too fun!
3. Andy yelling Choo Choo Train EVERY time he opened a present (he got a lot of trains) and LOVING the train table Grandpa J built for him. He did not want to leave it Christmas afternoon to go to Grandma P's.
4. He was also obsessed with Grandpa P's train! 
5. Taylor thoroughly enjoyed the unwrapping of the presents more than what was inside. If you didn't hurry she would open yours too.
6. Conversation between Grandma J and Taylor prior to Christmas.
Grandma: So Taylor you have so many toys, I don't know what to get you.
7. Ashlyn kicking her legs and screaming every time she saw Christmas lights...such a fun age!
9. Andy and Ashlyn needing all the toys out of the box as soon as the wrapping was off.
11. Christmas Eve at our house where Russ introduced the kids to Mr. Fuzzy and when I first suspected my sister was pregnant...didn't take long, I know her too well to believe she would drink milk for dinner just because.
12. Record snow fall in Wrightwood: Taylor was in heaven!
13. Tyler making up for not sleeping "Christmas Eve Eve" in order to finish all our shopping. Thank goodness stores were open 24 hours!!!
14. New York!

That train table is awesome. If only that wouldn't take up half of our tiny little apartment...
And it snows there? Cool.
