A Very Merry O'Neill Christmas

We got to celebrate Christmas with my family in Ponca City. We had a wonderful time, plus Sutton got to meet his Uncle Tommy, Aunt Megan and Cousin Hope. Mom made a wonderful dinner that we all stuffed ourselves on. It was just nice to get to spend time with everyone. It was really fun to watch Hope and Sutton check each other out. Hope came over to see who it was on her Mommy's lap. She was very gentle and would pet him sometimes. Megan would tell her "gentle touches", and Megan realized that's what she tells Hope when she pets their dogs. So Hope might be thinking Sutton is another doggie!!!! When Aunt Meggie wasn't holding Sutton, Mema and Papa were. Sutton chilled out on Papa's lap and had Mema making him laugh up a storm!!! I don't have any pictures with Mema and Sutton. I realized, after I got home, that I had taken all those pictures with my Mom's camera. Hopefully I'll get some of my Mom and Sutton soon.

Uncle Tommy holding Sutton for the first time!

Hope in her cute Christmas dress. She'll be one on January!

Uncle Tommy couldn't believe how little Sutton was!

Aunt Meggie is making Sutton laugh just like she makes the rest of us laugh!

Hope opening her present from Sutton. She loved playing with it!

Sutton taking a nap with Daddy. He's in his Christmas outfit!

We got to see my high school friends, Pam and Travis, and their little boy Xavier. He is 3 weeks older than Sutton! Isn't he adorable?

We waited to long to take this picture. Xavier was ready to go home.
Pam and I have been friends forever and were college roommates!

The whole family went down to Stillwater and ate at Hideaway. We met Sherry and her family there. She got in a little holding time!

Aunt Meggie and Hope. SOO cute!

This is my favorite picture of Papa and Sutton.

I think Sutton is laughing at one of Papa's stories. He always told us stories about himself...when he was a little boy, as cute as could be.....
