Hot Tub

Darby had a hitting lesson for softball so Sayler came over and they had some girl time before and after their lesson. They wanted to go in the hot tub. These two are just so sweet. I love that they are such good friends.

The Big Cousins 

ice Skating

We made plans to go ice skating and one of our motivations was to meet up with our cousins and their kids. Jim & Nicole came with their two kids. Kristi also joined us with her two boys. It was so great to see them and it was a fun activity to do with all the kids.

All the girls.

After ice skating we went to Johnny Rockets for lunch.  

 

Cousins

The day after Christmas the cousins came to town.

Aunt Jenny got some snuggles with Eva.  

Playing video games with each other.....don't worry they didn't do this all the time.  

Matching outfits 

 

Left, Right, Center

After our morning at home we drove down to my cousin Adam's house in Puyallup.  We had fun playing with the younger kids, eating food, white elephant for the adults and Left, Right, Center. 

Bo & Ollie both won the two rounds and came home with some extra cash. 

My sister's wanted to know what on earth I was wearing so I took a picture and sent it to them. 

 

Christmas Morning

I love our Christmas mornings!  I am so thankful for this crew and I'm glad we have created special moments for our family.  

It's a little different as they get older....we can all sleep in.....the gifts are a bit trickier....reactions are a little more subdued....but I'm soaking in these years.  

 

Christmas Eve

After church we went to Brian & Angie's for dinner, cookies and presents. It was such a nice evening.

Bo loved the cookies!
