Deven's first Christmas










So I am a little out of order but I wanted to be sure to document our little guy's first Johnston/Bodle xmas extravaganza x's four.

1. We packed up the trusty Kia, told Sam to be good and we drove down I-5 to Lakewood for the Johnston xmas eve homemade sausage fest. Deven sported his first xmas jammies (see xmas morning pics below) and was a hit. He was even able to stay up passed his bed time because he got in an extra nap on the drive down. We had such good time catching up with Nick's extended family and I am bummed we didn't get any pictures. After celebrating via food: homemade sausage, potato salad, m&ms, cookies, and various other fabulous snacks we headed back up to our lake with an extra passenger. My brother Aaron came along for the ride so he could spend xmas eve and xmas morning with his nephew!

2. Christmas morning was so fun, Deven was obviously a good boy this year and Santa made a special trip to our house:













3. Next we were off to Nana and Bubba's house for Christmas breakfast. Deven had on a new outfit for the occasion and had tons of fun with his cousins:

4. Finally we all landed at Nick's parents house where we all played with Deven's new toys and ate dinner from the new Johnston kitchen. It was delicious and someday Deven will be able to eat some too.

Last minute shopping

Deven skipped school and I took a day off from work so we could sleep in and do some last minute errands before our first Christmas together. We ran to the YMCA, became members and signed up for swim lessons to start in January. Then we went to visit Nick at his work (no hooky for dad). We finally made it to the mall where we roamed around for a while trying to figure out what to get all the special people in our lives. Thankfully Nick got off work early, came to our rescue and we picked up some fun stuff. Here are a couple of fun picks of Deven's first Xmas eve day...unfortunately spent at a mall but he didn't seem to mind! More picks to follow as we head to T town for the Johnston Family festivities!!
