Christmas!

I had to work Christmas day, so we did Christmas on Christmas Eve. Uncle Daniel and Cousin Rita came to visit. When Cooper woke up, he had a light breakfast then we all opened presents. Cooper got a ton of toys! He had a lot of fun with the boxes and paper, as most kids his age do :)

We had a family tradition "Birthday cake  for Jesus" aka my mom's plum cake. Cooper had a healthy serving. Later, we had our family Christmas dinner and we ate a first....Terducken! That evening we had Christmas Eve services. Cooper did great in the first one, and he and I played in the lobby during the second service. Cooper loves hearing his voice echo and thought his shrieks sounded great! Unfortunately, everyone inside could hear them as well.....

On Christmas day, I had to work, and the rest of the Becker clan came over for our big Christmas dinner.

Some of the food

More food! Great Grandpa Becker always leads the charge for the food!

Linda always finds the neatest things! These were musical dancing Santa hats

Cooper enjoyed the good food

Singing and dancing dog :)
Then everyone was ready for a nap!

Cousin Parker was worn out by the celebration!

That evening Cooper came with Memaw, Captain Ron, and cousin Rita to bring food to the station for all of us to eat. We were so appreciative! It was a great Christmas!
