Christmas Day--those few hours that only come once a year (and seem to come faster the older I get). Due to our late Monopoly game (see the below post) we weren't all up until 8 AM. We awoke to several inches of fresh snow on the ground with it still falling! A white christmas! We were thrilled, to say the least.
What better way to begin Christmas day than with a little football (yes, I know that's debatable).
Uncle Mike's rather disturbing drawing on his new Buddha Board (the gift he gave himself--see the below post again).
The last shot I'll get of the Christmas tree WITH presents underneath it.
And how old are these two again? Precisely...
Our version of stockings this year--there was nowhere to hang "stockings." It's what's inside that counts :)
We got some hats from our cousins--they could be worn as hats, or "gators." Uncle Mike preferred the gator look.
He also preferred the mask look. We didn't.
Robert got a nice new coat :)
And a soft blanket.
He expressed a desire to learn to knit, so I gave Uncle Mike knitting needles and yarn for Christmas, along with a free lesson (since we're both lefties and only a lefty can teach a lefty how to knit). He looks like an eager pupil to me (if not a little turned around--take a look at that yarn between those needles).
Mary got a really fun game called "Whoonu" (pronounced "who knew").
What a darling shirt Ellie got.
And here are those hats again--how cute!

What a jolly Christmas Cochran clan! We do eagerly await some 'snow' pictures that Katie raved about on her blog! Sounds utterly delightful! The Lord bless you this coming year and the rest of your lives! We love you, think of you, and pray for you often!
