We have had a wonderful busy time this Christmas. We had our own gift opening here at home. Then last weekend we went to my Moms house. We had two dinners with family there. This weekend we are headed to Iowa and also to my Dads. WHEW! Fun time though. We also got about 5 inches of snow on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day. First it was a couple inches of sleet though. It made for very slick driving. We took our Durango with 4 wheel drive to my moms. We would have never made it in the van. As it is we still can't get our van out of our uphill driveway.

Here are some picture highlights.




The cousins. Aidan, Payton, Ethan, Luca, Gioia and Dominic. Aidan and Ethan belong to my cousin Brett and his wife Becky. Payton belongs to my cousin Matt and his wife Jenny. They are expecting #2 this summer. The other 3 are mine. :)




The all went out to try sledding. We have a big hill in our front yard. Perfect for sledding. They only went down a few times. It was REALLY cold out.
