Henry's First Christmas

Ben & Jonas chilling out after dinner.
This post is going to be packed with pictures, we're talking LOTS of pictures.  But, that's what happens when it's your baby's first Christmas!  :)  We celebrated first with the Stinar's.  At the Stinar's we all contribute different appetizers and that is our dinner.  It's kind of fun, because there so many different great appetizers to enjoy...yum!

Christmas morning we had brunch at our house with Merle, Deb, Jordan, Rebekah, Uncle Doug, and our friend Paul.  It was easy for us since everyone else brought the food!  :)
Auntie Rebekah and Henry.
Grandpa Sheldon and Henry loved spending time together every morning.  They solved many of the world's problems together. :)
We went to celebrate Christmas with the Espe's after a little bit later, since that's when my sisters and brother were able to come.  It was so nice to get to spend a whole week with them, though, since everyone lives so far apart.


Meeting Auntie Ingrid for the first time!
Henry didn't get any attention...can't you tell?? :)
Auntie Erica came all the way from South Korea!  She won the award for taking the most pictures!
Cousin Silas LOVED Henry and was so gentle with him.  Henry got lots of hugs and kisses!

Sounds like an awesome christmas! I love all the pictures - everyone looks great. Henry and Silas are adorable! I am so glad you were able to spend so much time with your whole family - how fun! I wish we were close enough to stop by for some ice cream and chocolate sauce :-)
