A cousin Christmas

My in-laws traditionally put up their Christmas tree on the first Monday in December. I’ve helped pack away the tree before, but this is the first year our family has been here for the decorating.

Miles, Masie and all of their cousins were so very helpful.

Mia, what’s on your arm?

Fyn was very instructive and told me the proper way to position the limbs.

Lyla mostly enjoyed watching.

These two, William and James, are the best older cousins EVER! They are so great with the younger kids and kind to each other. Miles is sort of the new kid in town, so he’s getting extra attention from everyone. I love it! He is having a fantastic time and it’s thanks mostly to these boys and their sister Courtney.

Pop especially loved all the help he got from our little tinker Masie. Hehehe.

Luke’s sister Elise not to be confused with my grandma Alyce or my brother’s daughter Ellyce.

Lars was entertained by Annie.

Baby Emmeline

Lyla and Annie both found some friends.

Emmeline and Courtney

Luke’s sister-in-law Kate is happy to get her baby fix.

Just call him Will.I.Am.

A little support from James.

Taylor (not to be confused with my brother Taylor) is the closest in age with Miles and they are having a blast together. He’s at her house now skipping out on his nap.

Lyla is always ready with a ((hug)) whether you’re ready or not.

Wait. Did we forget the lights??

No tree decorating is complete until you ROCK around it.

I could not find warm weather Christmas pajamas for my crew. So the girls got xx-small t-shirts to wear as nightgowns, and Miles got boxers and red t-shirt all thanks to Target. And cousin Taylor glamming it up.

Oh so pretty!

Merry Christmas!!
