Family Christmas get together

Each year my family gets together to celebrate the Christmas season. It's hard for all my siblings and I, with our families to all be together for Christmas, so we pick a weekend before Christmas to get together. This year, we went to Caldwell. There are always fun activities planned and we always have a great time. This year has been my favorite weekend that we've had so far. We went ice skating, swimming (outdoors, Laura has a friend with a heated pool), Uncle David pulled the kids on a sled behind his 4 wheeler, we had a talent show, a gift exchange, and of course yummy food and great company! These pictures are totally in random order. Here's Chris showing off his talent of juggling. The kids getting ready for their gift exchange game.

Jace and Gavin, two cute cousins and best buds!

Two more cute cousins, Lindsay and Dexen.

Laura reading a poem she wrote for the talent show. This poem was so funny, it was about the family and she remembered details from years ago that I haven't thought about in years. It was a great poem, that had us all laughing.

Ali and Baylie sang a song while I played the piano for them.

Shrek even came to share a Christmas poem for us! (Kara)

Another set of cute cousins, Baylie and Kacie. These girls have a great time together.

My WHOLE family! What a great looking bunch! I know who everyone is so I won't name them all : )
