Sunday afternoon, we all went to Mimi's house for dinner and more presents.
Cousin Rachel rocking Michael in a rocking chair that has rocked more babies than can be counted. |
Dillon wasted no time going to play with Elijah's toys. |
Then, he led Elijah and Mema on a trek around the house searching for "the puppies" a la 101 Dalmatians. |
This included lots of running up and down the halls. Mema got quite a work out. |
Michael met yet another aunt, Aunt Ellen, from St. Louis. |
Papa read a wonderful poem, written by one of his friends, about Baby Jesus. |
Then, Tapa sang "Mary, Did You Know?" |
After that, came presents! Dillon got lots of new toys, and Michael got some clothes and a few toys. Dillon's favorite toy was a foam sword cousin Stephen got him. |
Cousin Claire, the youngest of Mimi's grandchildren, holds Michael, the youngest great-grandchild. |
Cousin Joseph and Dillon play with one of Elijah's toys while he's busy with another. |
Today, we went to Wal-Mart and bought Dillon some trains to go with his new set, a new coat, and some new "Buzz Lightyear" shoes with a gift card from Uncle Tom.
We all have had a wonderful Christmas!

The man who wrote the poem "Would you like to hold a baby?" is Gail Burton.
He can be seen reading the poem at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLkBRvVmFe4 along with me singing "Mary Did You Know".
