The deeeelicious meal!
Claire and Emery having a wonderful time at the park.We went down to St. George this year for Christmas. We loved our time together with the Hancocks! We have many fond memories of all that we enjoyed there. Christmas Eve was a delight! Mike and Curtis took the children out to the park and to buy white elephant gifts for one another. Meanwhile, Melanie and I worked the day in kitchen preparing a most delectable meal, if I must say so myself! We enjoyed peeling potatoes while listening to music, and laughing together. We had turkey with all the trimmings, and was it scrumptious! The kids were done in about five minutes, but I am sure they will enjoy the meal even more as the years pass! We enjoyed a lovely evening of white elephant gifts, acting out the nativity, and carol singing. Curtis even participated, with playing the part of the donkey - halarious! We ended it off with new pajamas for all, and setting out goodies for Santa. The children's eyes were aglow with excitment, I treasure those moments each Christmas!

That's so awesome you guys got to cook dinner together. We need to all get together one year - but at least we have the cruise plan! I'm still not sure how that's going to work though - although being preggers is doable I don't want to miss out on sweet activities. So...delay family planning? haha!
That pic of you eating dinner is awesome - full of personality. Makes me miss you even more than I already do.
The picture of all your kids together totally looks like ethan's pjs are jennas. I had to enlarge it to understand what was going on because I was thinking - jenna got rocket jammies? hehe!
That was just an amazing day. I would relive it all over again! Cooking with you sister is simply the best. It didn't feel like work at all...thanks to you we had the most delicious turkey..YUM! You need to just move in here and make our food all the time.
The nativity was fun..I do love that picture of Ella and the Shepherds, Caden and Ethan. IT's so great that our children are such good friends with each other. DOn't ever move away..I can't be selfish though...DARN! Love you stinky!
