Merry Christmas, Part 2

We celebrated Christmas with the Chatham-Nelson-Tilton Clan at Uncle Jesse and Aunt Dana's house on Christmas Eve.  All the cousins were so excited and couldn't wait to open presents.  Being the grown-ups that we are we made the kiddos wait and eat lunch before the festivities could begin. We had a lot of fun and wrapping paper was everywhere!  We were also excited to see the stocking that Grandottie made for Noah.  Like the rest of our family's stockings it was decorated with a non-naked bear.  ;)  It was also great to visit with everyone and to have all the cousins together.
"Help Mommy.  This is wrapped pretty good."
Here are our group poses.  Special thanks to Uncle Jason for blocking the light from the blinds so we wern't striped (like he is)!

Afterwards we went to church with mommy's family and then to a Christmas party at the Garrett's.  Joshua had a great time playing with and following "the girls."  One of the girls brought her fiddle and played Christmas songs.  Joshua clapped when she played and kept saying "my turn" and reaching for the instrument.  He also sang Christmas carols with the "big kids" and was really happy to be included. Later we went home and dressed in our Christmas pajamas to get ready for Santa's visit.
