Christmas

We had a nice long Christmas break in Manchester/Tullahoma with our families. We started out by celebrating Zac's birthday and then spent the night at dad and Gina's. Cooper ended up catching the flu that night and Erin and I made a quick run to get tamiflu. We went to moms the next day then to the Cox's after that. We went to the Christmas eve service at church Sunday night. Quinn was so funny going on stage for the children's service. His little head kept popping up to look around. Hank loved lighting his candle and holding it during the candlelight part. Before the service the boys made cookies with nana and papa and set them out for Santa. Santa came the next morning and the boys played for a good long time. We went to the Cox's for lunch. We did gifts that day with the kids and then did adult presents after the kids went to bed. The kids had so much fun playing with their cousins and all of their new toys. We ended our week by seeing Star wars with Brenton and Cyndi on our way back to Nashville. Now we are home and when I came back from the gym this morning, my sweet husband had taken down the tree and all the decorations. So nice to have it all back to normal. We had such a good Christmas.

 Cooper loved opening presents this year. He would open them and then sign more.

 For an almost 3 hour movie, the kids did great. Coop and Quinn took short naps during it.
