Coffee House 2013
Well I guess John Phillip, Dominic, and Isaac were bound to be natural performers with their family history. Any excuse to dress them up, I take advantage of.
The Simpson's host a "Coffee House" every year where they have friends and family come together for a night of fun, food, laughter, and most importantly, performances of any kind. It's mostly for an older crowd but our boys started it off with a special little number before they went to bed. Not knowing what to expect, I threw them out there with a costume on and an instrument in hand. They performed to The Little Drummer Boy song and loved it. They kept saying they wanted to do it over again. I loved seeing their little faces light up during their moment of fame.
Here's a clip from the night: Drummer Boy(s)

The Magic of Christmas Time
It's been a magical month for the boys...and for me to witness their little imaginations growing. Everything has been about Santa Claus and learning fun new Christmas songs. John belts Frosty the Snowman song from the top of his lungs every day. He has also learned some of Jingle Bells and his newest, "Rejoice! Rejoice!" song. Their favorite current movies are Frosty and Rudolph.
Here is John Phillip and Dominic playing "Santa." They were reenacting sitting on Santa's lap and asking for choo choo trains and horses. They strategized so John would ask for horses and Dominic would ask for choo choo trains, making sure they would get both. Smart boys. ;)
This video is pretty funny. Link: Santa's Lap
Some photos from Phillip's change of command ceremony/Christmas party for the families. Phil serving everyone food when he was the one being honored that day....always a man of service. They had crafts for the boys and they got to see their favorite big man again...Santa!
These pictures/video are from their only snow day here in Nashville. Aunts Rose and Helen took them sledding! And they absolutely LOVED it.
