Christmas Eve Sledding

Christmas Eve morning Ben organized a sledding party. It was so much fun! I feel a tradition coming on! The babies were such good sports while we all played in the snow.

The first run Greta got covered in snow and didn't appreciate it but after that she had so much fun and was SO sad when it was time to leave!

Here is a picture overload of the fun:

Cousin Christmas gift exchange

The Wednesday before Christmas we all got together to have dinner and let the kids exchange gifts. We are lucky to have Brian and Audrey with us this year! So that is Ryanne, Bridger, Jade, Greta, Carter, Chad, Trevor, Megan, Haylee, Jordan, Mitch, Abby and Madison. Yes, 13 kids!! They all had fun hanging out together and exchanging gifts. All except for miss Ryanne. This is what she did the whole time:

I guess we can excuse her for not being in the party mood since she wasn't even 3 weeks old yet.

Here are all the pics of the gift opening in age order of course:

I hope one of these years we can get together with all of the siblings and have one giant Christmas. Of course we would have to get some anti-anxiety meds for grandma. Oh who are we kidding with 18 + kids in the house we would probably ALL need anti anxiety meds!
