Cox Christmas Eve

Hooray for Christmas in St. George. This year we were extra lucky because we had two Christmas Eves, one on the 23rd with the Cox family and the other on the 24th with the Robertsons. It was wonderful! Here are some pics of our Christmas Eve at the Coxes. All the little boys got Thomas the Train pajamas, to their great delight. Here are McKay with his cousins Colten and Camden. They had a wonderful time playing together. Here they are playing with Grandma's decorative boxes.

Samuel and James

Benson and Mommy. This was Benson's favorite place in Grandma's house--the train table. Every morning we stayed at the Coxes the first thing he would say (and still one of his only words) was "Choo choo".

Daddy and Benson. Here Benson was saying "cheese". This is one of about 5 words he says, and Mommy still isn't one of them (he still calls me "Daddy"). Although, while we were in Utah he learned a new word, "Costco". He says it clear as a bell. Haha!

Isi-bell :)

McKay and Boots

Looks like he's a natural! I guess all he needed was a mic. Maybe now he'll sing instead of just shout, "Stop Practicing"! whenever anyone in our house utters a note.

McKay watching the program. After a delicious dinner of ham and turkey, potatos, green bean casserole and other wonderful food, we made our way up to the theater room for the Christmas Eve program. It was really great this year! Performances included all the little girls dancing and singing to "Santa Baby", BJ and I singing "The Prayer", Dallin and Kiarah doing, "The Christmas Song", Aubrey playing piano, all the teenagers singing, "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" and other great stuff.

Matthew still calls me "Daddy," too. He knows how to say "Mommy" but for some reason it hasn't stuck. Every time I remind him I'm Mommy he says, "No. Daddy."

Oh well, it's still kind of cute.

I love Christmas jammies! Especially match-y ones. And my boys would have been so excited to see Thomas jammies on everyone. Sounds like a fun Christmas.
