Merry Christmas!

We've had a wonderful time this Christmas season. Lots of busyness and parties and family. Here's a snapshot of my family.

Where it all began. My wonderful parents.

My sister Tracy. Tracy is my running buddy. We did the Turkey Trot together with her girls:)My sister Rhonda. Rhonda has been giving me a hard time for not blogging. I could state all my excuses-job, 4 kids, blah, blah, blah. But I won't. I have no excuses. Rhonda gave her sisters a beautiful present this year. This book. It has the pictures of our girl weekend back in May. It made us all cry. It was awesome:) Thanks Rhonda! This is my sister Kris. She and her family win the prize for traveling the farthest to get here. They made the trip in 14 1/2 hours by getting on the road at 3:30 in the morning and only making 2 stops. I like to think we inspired them to try it that way since that's how we got to their house over the summer:) It's great to have them here. This is my sister Laura. They stayed at our house this past weekend. They are wonderful and gracious houseguests and never once complained about having to squeeze into our tiny house. We had a blast.
This is us. I like to think we win the prize for the best color coordination. If only I could take the credit.
This is the whole group. What a lot of people! Thanks to Nana for coming over to take the group shots.
These are my wonderful sisters and parents.
This is one of my favorite pictures. Caroline will turn 3 next week. Leah will turn 3 next month. Deborah and Joanna will turn 3 in May. And my great niece Noa will turn 2 in April. The little girls sang some songs together from D. and J.'s Christmas program. It was super cute.
