Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and the Day After

So it has taken me nearly forever to post some Christmas pictures, but here they are, finally. We had a great Christmas this year and were fortunate to be able to spend it with so many family and friends. Henry certainly enjoyed himself and was more interested in the toys this year as opposed to the wrapping paper. Here are some pictures from all of our festivities.

Christmas Eve, Henry kept the bow on his head for much of the evening.

Henry got a singing, motorcycle riding santa from his great Uncle Steve and Gracy. This toy is now kept in Henry's room due to the volume, but Henry sure does love it.

Plumber maybe???!!

Another loud toy, again from Uncle Steve and Gracy, you can tell they do not have any kids!

Aunt Kerri got Henry an easel, which he loves. Can you tell she's a teacher? We constantly have to write "H" on the board, he's a little self absorbed!

Henry's stocking Christmas morning, complete with a sword and a new Tiddles.

All of the loot Christmas morning.

Surprised or sleepy? Not really sure.

Henry cooking up some Christmas breakfast.

Henry got a Blue's Clues notebook for Christmas, which he loved, but he was looking for the "thinking chair." He finally agreed to use his rocking chair as a substitute.

We went to Kate and Bryan's on Christmas day to celebrate with my family. Here's Henry and Grammy. Henry's sporting some of his new Christmas clothes.

Henry got a scooter from Grammy and Papa. He was so excited he could not wait to ride it, in fact I believe he had a complete temper tantrum until someone agreed to put it together for him.

Henry and Auntie, judging from his smile, it was probably Auntie he convinced to put it together.

Henry and Cole in their matching "sweet dreams" from Grammy and Papa.

The day after Christmas we went to Kevin's parents to celebrate again with them and also with Great Grandma Klvana and Kevin's Aunt Carol. Henry thoroughly enjoyed his chocolate Christmas tree.

Bubba and Emily's Wedding

On 12/19/09, we celebrated Brian and Emily's wedding. We all had a great time and it was a beautiful day that we were blessed to participate in. Henry and Cole were the ring bearers and did a great job. I don't have any pictures of them coming down the aisle as I was more focused on making sure they made it. Henry lasted until just about the end of the reception and had a great time dancing with his cousins. Here are some pictures from the day.

All five boys at the hotel before the reception.

Daddy though it would be funny to wrap Henry's hands up in napkins during dinner.

Henry then thought he should use the napkins as a prop when dancing.

Henry spent much time getting spun around on the floor as he cousins were "break dancing."

Luke dancing with Henry when Henry could not find a partner, what a good cousin.

Henry dancing with Jack's "girl." I had to ask her to take a turn with all of the boys, one girl and five boys is not such a good ratio!

Henry dancing with Grandma and Grandpa.

The happy couple with all of their nephews.

Brian and Emily with their ring bearers.

The beautiful cake.

Henry thought it was appropriate to join Grammy and Bubba in the mother son dance, thankfully for Henry they welcomed him to join.

Henry thoroughly enjoyed the chocolate fountain.

Getting a lift from Papa.

Showing off his moves!
